ARC R11 2018 aluminium upper deck

ARC have introduced an aluminium upper deck for the R11 2018 electric touring car. The item is cut from high-quality 7075-T6 aluminium and it comes black anodised and with silver edge details. The part is especially useful when running a carbon fibre chassis on medium-low carpet tracks as it makes for a stiffer chassis assembly compared to an all-carbon setup while allowing for more torsional flex than an aluminium chassis.
