7075.it T4’19 centre chassis weights

Coming from 7075 Special Parts are three new centre chassis weights for the new Xray T4’19 touring car. Available as 30g, 35g and 40g variants, the weights are of a special design that does the chassis allow to flex, meaning they have as little influence in natural chassis flex as possible. In addition to adding overall weight at the most central part of the car the weights also act as a centre battery stopper. The weights start a new line of dedicated T4’19 optionals from 7075.it that will be released soon.

Perfect results for Sobue & Ratheisky at OneTen Rd1

Leg 2 of the Sweep Modified class saw Akio Sobue complete the clean sweep by taking the win and with it the overall win of round 1 of the new for this season OneTen Series. The Infinity driver never put a foot wrong the whole day and despite some moments while lapping traffic he put in the perfect run to win, once again in front of his team mate Jin Sawada. Still running on the same set of Sweep handout tires since the beginning of the day, he will continue to use them for tomorrow’s second round of the series. It was not a good final for Jan Ratheisky however as a coming together with the barrier coming on to the straight saw his Xray sent into the outside wall, causing extensive damage. The crash promoted Gary Huang to 3rd with Rocket Zhang from 6th on the grid to 4th.
