VBC Lightning12M alloy chassis & on-road car stand
VBC Racing have introduced an aluminium main chassis and lower pod plate for the Lightning12M as well as an aluminium on-road car stand. Starting with the option parts, the chassis and lower pod plate are both cut from 2.5mm aluminium and they come black anodised and with silver chamfered edges for improved looks. With a higher rigidity than the standard carbon parts the alloy pieces will increase the overall stiffness of the car which leads to an improved handling especially on high-bite surfaces while the added weight will lower the centre of gravity which further helps in grippy conditions. Both the chassis and the pod plate are available separately.
Also new is the machined aluminium car stand. Made from lightweight and sturdy aluminium material and sporting an anodised grey and red 2-tone finish the stand also features upper foam strips to keep the chassis from sliding around. The car stand is usable with 1/10th touring cars and also 1/10th and 1/12th scale pan cars.
