shepherd-velox-v10-proShepherd Racing has announced details of their final design of the soon to be released Velox V10 Pro chassis. The re-designed front end features a ball raced wire anti-roll bar, a narrower differential, new lower and upper wishbones, a carbon body mount support and a very small aluminium servo saver. The front lower arms can be mounted in two different positions using some eccentric inserts to adjust the roll centre – a unique feature in this class. Additionally the front shock tower has been updated to suit the latest geometry changes of the shock position for a better steering response.
New rear lower wishbones shorten the wheelbase by 2mm compared to the predecessor resulting in more agile driving characteristics. An updated shock position allows to mount them in front of the shock tower for a better protection and improved traction. The rear shocks now are the same size as the front shocks resulting in less unsprung weight. The rear upper wishbone has been replaced by a turnbuckle and the rear bulkheads are updated accordingly saving even more overall weight and improving the traction out of the corner further more.
Other features include a new two-speed adapter preventing the pin from coming out when not installed accordingly, a narrow and symmetrical chassis for optimised flex and longer CVDs in the front.
