Shepherd V10 chassis plate & carbon insert

From Shepherd there is a new chassis plate and carbon insert for their Velox V10. The new chassis plate is milled from high quality German 7075 T6 aerospace aluminium. It has to be used with the advanced weight system battery holder as it features a centre brace for 18g sliding weights which replace the regular battery holder. The possibility to move the weights in the centre of the chassis allows for quick fine tuning of the weight balance even in the pit lane. The stiffer design of the chassis plate improves the car’s overall handling and makes it more sensitive to setup changes. The optional 2mm front carbon stiffener is milled from finest carbon fibre and helps to reduce front flex resulting in an easier-to-drive car under various conditions.
