Fenix BD8-2018/17 & Velox F1 carbon chassis

Coming from Fenix Racing are new carbon fibre chassis parts for the Yokomo BD8-2018 and 2017 as well as the Shepherd Velox F1. Starting with the Yokomo chassis, the part sports the same shape as the recently introduced aluminium chassis with the updated front design reducing chassis scrub during hard cornering. The 2.2mm thick chassis fits both the 2018 and 2017 kits. Also new and usable with all chassis variants is a 2.1mm upper deck. As for the Shepherd F1 chassis, the main plate is significantly slimmer, with the Fenix part measuring 89.5mm at the widest point while the original is 113mm. The more narrow design reduces chassis scrub and thus loss of speed during cornering. All of the above products are available now.
