Featuring front steering arm options for both single and double bellcrank steering, as well as rear steering arms, they feature duplicated geometry of standard arms and provide more flex on the toe axis, which in testing yielded more traction. The V3 Arms now feature a pressed 7075 aluminium M3 threaded insert, so now you can screw the ball stud directly into the arm.
The Bavarian Champs final took place last weekend at the Sand am Main track and saw Jorn Neumann (SWorkz) take the TQ spot following qualifying. Jorn would go onto win his Semi final as would Aaron Rönick (Associated) and it would be Aaron that started the 30 minute main final from pole position. In the final Neumann would get tagged from behind at the start which dropped him back to mid pack and allowed Rönick to pull clear. Neumann would recover and by the end was only 8 seconds back from Aaron who took the win, with Jorn second and Max Hesse (SWorkz)in 3rd. Hesse would take the overall Bavarian title having also accumulated points in the southern regional series.
