Roche introduce new Rapide F1-2016 option parts

Roche have introduced two new option parts for the Rapide F1-2016 1/10th formula car. First up is the short aluminium front standoff set for the use with smaller diameter tyres. The 11.8mm standoffs in combination with the 0.5mm spacers allow to run proper ride height settings when using somewhat smaller tyres that would reduce the ground clearance too much with the kit’s parts. The set includes four aluminium front A-arm standoffs and four 0.5mm shims. The second new part is a graphite front brace that allows to fine-tune the stiffness of the front end. It connects the lower A-arms and makes for a more rigid setting that leads to a more stable car.
