Team AJ X-Factory Rear toe block

New from Team AJ is this rear toe block for the X-Factory X-6 series of cars. Currently still in prototype, the final version will vary slightly in shape and be anodised blue and black. This new part is made from aluminium and not only strengthens this area but also adds to the weight for different handling characteristics. The final toe angles haven’t been finalized but it looks to be 3 and 4 degrees for sure and maybe more in between. Expect it to be available from the beginning of September.
