Revolution starts here!
Innovation never stops and as refinement
continues in model car racing, an alternate step is required to bring
the next stage, the new era.
We at WS pride our selves in both innovative thinking and engineering ability, combining those entities Fast Fox was born.
Introducing a cantilever suspension system, this provides significant benefits applicable to all tracks and conditions -
Lower CoG
In
race cars, full size and model lower the Center of Gravity reduces
bodyroll and increases stability allowing for increased cornering
speeds, increased setup ability with less risk of flipping over.
With all the damper mass moved below the upper link level there's a significant amount of mass significantly lower!
Polar MoI
The unique positioning of the dampers on the Fast Fox is intentional.
Polar
Moment of Inertia is about centralising mass. By moving the shocks and
their associated mounts inboard we have taken weight out of the ends of
the car without adding sprung mass.
This will both speed up the
response of the car when turning but also help the suspension to
maintain a steady platform over the bumps.
Aero
The dampers and the towers are not in the way!
Ignore
the wheels and tires the frontal area of the car is almost 30% less.
This not only reduces drag but, just as significantly, creates a smooth
path for the air flow to the wings, the drag is much more effective and
adjustable.
Adjustability
One of the key
requirements for the design during the development phase was to create a
system that responds just like the kit suspension does. If you have a
setup dialled in at your home track you can transfer this to the new
chassis and go racing. Then with the improvements detailed above and the
extra adjustability that a push rod, inboard suspension system brings
you can start finding new gains that simply weren’t available you
before..
Cantilevers bring a whole new world of adjustment which has only just been unleashed.
In a time dominated by small changes this could well be next big milestone change!
