Race Opt International have introduced the MTS FFV3 1/10th front wheel drive touring car. The vehicle makes use of the proven FFV2 base and features a new, more backwards motor position to allow for more balanced steering throw while the top deck has been raised by 1mm to increase chassis flex for improved traction and steering. In addition the raised deck allows to use thicker batteries. Other features include a new front pulley holder for easier and faster gear diff access, dual joint driveshafts come as standard and redesigned shocks will do away with oil leakage issues. The graphite suspension arms feature a new design with membrane absorbers to allow for quicker left/right rolling rebound movement and the new front shock tower with wire holes helps to bundle the motor and sensor wires for tidier wiring. Last but not least comes a new 30mm/40mm laydown motor fan mount, new design front spindle mounts allow for easy caster adjustment and updated swaybars with 1.6mm, 1.8mm and 2.0mm hardness allow easy suspension roll adjustment.
