New from Shepherd Micro Racing:
 
Team Shepherd is happy to release details of the Velox V8 "EC" 2015 version. It comes with a few small but fine detail changes that have been successfully tested by Simon Kurzbuch at the final ENS in Fiorano where he took the 2014 overall win. 
 
The new rear shock tower gives additional room to adjust the position of the centering pin of the rear body mount while the front body posts are now hard-coated to increase the durability. The steering linkage received new smaller pivot balls and ball joints that have less play and wear compared to the previous version while the complete car is now equipped with long-lasting steel pivot balls. The aluminium ones are still available as option parts for racers concentrating on weight savings.
