Roche Rapide P10 1/10 200mm World GT Competition Car Kit
Building upon the design of the P12, Roche is nearly ready with their new World GT 200mm P10 Pan Car. The first public pictures of the car revealed a new steering rack design.

Looks cool but I have a question...if you are going to use a steering rack, why not center the servo in the chassis? Why still have it off-set the same as if you are not using a rack? Other RWD chassis that use a steering rack usually have the servo centered like 2wd buggies and trucks. Balance wise I would think centered would be better.

Yes, Yokomo has a multiple point steering setup, though clearly not as advanced as Roche steering rack. Though, a cool idea at the time, many people such as myself have done away with the crank system and moved towards the more traditional layout.
But, I might be wrong with the Roche setup.

I'm liking the idea of the steering rack! I don't think weight is a concern in wgt. My serpent wgt car is a heavier chassis than most, and still needed a lot of ballast even with the regular weight body. The extra 10g that the rack might add shouldn't matter, and the better geometry/less bump steer should help with performance. Great looking car.

Looks great. Count me in for one too, it will go nicely with my P12
