News: Mugen team test steering weights

Curioso ma evidentemente efficace l'uso di pesi di piombo sui mozzi anteriori sterzanti. Quelli di NeoBuggy Curiosando in giro per il paddock hanno anche scoperto laggiunta di pesi sugli snodi dello sterzo sulla macchina di Ty Tessmann.
A seguire l'articolo completo e dettagliato in lingua originale.
Buona lettura:

The Mugen team had a pretty suceessful Worlds warm up, taking the win with Robert Batlle and go into the Worlds as one of the dare we say 'joint' favourites to win as a manufacturer. Yesterday we reported that the team briefly tried out Kyosho shocks on their car, we caught up with team manager John-Yves who explained that the use of Kyosho shocks on various cars has been an ongoing trend and was something they simply wanted to try in order to understand the effect. After trying them out they returned to running Mugen's own shocks, team driver Lee Martin happy to tell us the Mugen ones felt much better on his car.

Another pretty noticeable addition to the MBX6 team buggys is the use of lead weights on the front steering hubs. According to team sources, the 15g weights secured between the driveshaft and upper pivot ball improve steering response and front end handling, we also understand that the team have been using heavier pivot balls in the top location for the same effect, having tried it a month ago at a private test. Snooping around the paddock we also spotted the 'adding weight to steering hubs' concept on the car of Ty Tessmann, although in this case we understand that they were drilled and secured differently.
