Vigor RC introduce new TRF419X carbon fibre options

Vigor RC have introduced new carbon fibre option parts for the Tamiya TRF419X touring car. First up is a 2.25mm lower chassis that features a fully symmetrical design, offering equal steering characteristics in both directions. On top of this the chassis provides higher corner speeds and improved car balance. Next up are 2.0mm and 1.6mm carbon fibre upper decks. A direct replacement for the stock part the top decks allow to fine-tune the overall grip available with the thinner 1.6mm plate being recommended especially for low-grip conditions. Last but not least are carbon fibre battery retainers. The L-shaped parts keep the battery in place even in hard impacts and they come in sets of two.
