Ultimate Racing 1/8 off-road insert rubber rings
Ultimate Racing 1/8 off-road insert rubber rings.
Realizzati per essere collocati nelle scanalature dell’inserto delle gomme 1/8 off-road, questi anelli in gomma Ultimate Racing evitano che l’inserto stesso si muova lateralmente migliorando la stabilità nelle curve veloci e che non centrifughi in accelerazione rendendo l’automodello molto più stabile in fase di accelerazione. Possono essere utilizzati sugli inserti della maggior parte dei marchi di gomme e su tutte le mescole, ma il loro effetto è maggiore sulle mescole morbide. A seconda che si voglia l’inserto più o meno fisso sul cerchio, gli anelli possono essere utilizzati in tutte e tre le scanalature, in due o solo in una. Sono venduti in buste da 50 pezzi e possono essere riutilizzati recuperandoli da treni di gomme ormai consumati.
