Schumacher Mi4 option parts

Schumacher Mi4 option parts

Schumacher have released 2 new parts for their Mi4 range of cars. Firstly is this new twin point steering system that bolts straight onto the Mi4 and is an infinitely adjustable steering system. Steering feel can be improved as this system uses more resolution for the servo, providing a smoother response. Under development for some time and used by Alex Laurent to win the EFRA Euros warm up just a few weeks ago. Secondly is a new front shock mount with an additional 3rd body mount post. With the ever increasing speeds of touring cars, the lightweight bodies can deform on the straights. The Schumacher team have been testing this 3rd body post for some time and have found the increased support for the body is excellent.
