Schumacher Mi10 Inboard Rear Toe Option Set

Schumacher has introduced this Inboard Rear Toe Option Set for its recently released Mi10 Electric Touring Car.  Highly recommended for Low to Medium traction surfaces, the Carbon Fibre Rear Inboard Toe Option Set allows you to toe in the rear arms at the chassis.  Inboard rear toe resists weight transfer to the front of the chassis and stiffens the rear, providing an increase in rear grip. Inboard toe has previously been favoured on low traction asphalt tracks.  To allow easy testing back and forth with standard kit zero toe, this position has been included in this option kit in the form of an extra mounting hole in the wishbone.

Takashima D-13 enters Titanium Chassis production

Takashima D-13 has announced that it has successfully completed the development and production of its first titanium chassis plates, marking another milestone in the company’s expanding range of premium chassis options.  Machined from high-grade titanium alloy, the new chassis combines exceptional strength with low weight, offering a unique balance of rigidity and controlled chassis flex.  The excellent strength-to-weight ratio allows the chassis to maintain high structural stability while lowering the overall centre of gravity, resulting in more predictable handling and improved consistency throughout a race.  For stock-class touring car racing, where carrying corner speed and maintaining momentum are critical, the lower centre of gravity helps reduce chassis roll and improves direction changes, while the controlled flex characteristics provide excellent mid-corner stability and consistent rear traction.  The result is a chassis that is easy to drive, highly repeatable and capable of delivering consistent lap times over long race durations.  In addition to its on-track performance, titanium offers outstanding corrosion resistance and excellent fatigue durability, ensuring long-term reliability even under demanding racing conditions.  With the successful introduction of its titanium manufacturing capability, Takashima D-13 plans to gradually expand the range with titanium chassis options for a variety of popular touring car platforms.  The new titanium series will complement the company’s existing chassis lineup, giving racers another premium material choice and even greater setup possibilities for different track conditions and driving styles.
