I raced my Evo last night in 17.5 on carpet and blasted my fastest times previously set with the T4'14 by like 5 seconds in quals and the main. I was driving safe and easy due to a very difficult layout and was able to TQ every round and win the main. None of this should be a surprise by now. I think the word is out that this car is faster than everything else in stock racing. But in case someone was still wondering, that continues to be true with the Evo so far in my testing.

Inventories might appear limited right now -- but there are many orders in line / in flight with Oleg for every country/distributor! Oleg is doing is absolute best to get the new products (and parts..) shipped out.

If you want an A700 Evo, A700L, or FFG I'd recommend back ordering these items ASAP. The longer you wait to order, the longer you'll be inline. At the current rate of demand, I wouldn't be surprised to see very tight inventories until mid-February. If you need something else --- reach out to your local dealer / distributor....

Viljami uses the cutted (1,3 mm) AM06 in rear. It gives the same roll center as AM06S but ~1,7 mm narrower track width.

Congratulations to Kutvonen for qualifying 2nd, Volker is currently untouchable so this is quite the achievement. Good luck in the mains.

Hanulec is there going to be an EVO specific 'First Aid' kit available? What about an 'Optional Parts' package? I assume that the Lunsford turnbuckle kit will stay the same? Lastly, are the TOP balls and ballcups pkg still available?

After A2 he is 2nd with a 2nd and 3rd. Hopefully he can take A3...

I dont think anyone knows what Evo first aid parts are yet. I'm thinking upper camber link plates will be important. A complete FFG will be usef for spares initally ... So if/when folks have issues they should just reach out.

C21 is an option --- first batch sold out but more on the way..

Nothing else changes with the car really. Whatever you liked to run on the A700L should map over to the Evo.

One important note. The Evo "bulkhead" is 1.3mm lower than the am01-1 from the A700L. Make sure to adjust shimming accordingly.

Any part number for FFG upper camber link plates? And why a complete FFG would be useful for spares? Some parts from the FFG kit are weak?

On which track condition is C21 useful?

Thanks;

Hi G-rem,

These are the Part Nr:
A700-AM42 FFG Link Holder Front
A700-AM54 FFG Link Holder Rear

No Parts of the FFG kit are weak. But when you are lonely on a Track as a A700-Evo driver and a part of your FFG break then you will have spare !
This is the reason why a spare FFg is usefull.

The C21 Carbon Topdeck is good on High Grip conditions ! It make the car less nervouse and more direct to drive in my opinion.

Best Regards Max

Wow! Viljami's car was REALLY good! He flew off the track trying to get around Ronald and managed to catch back up with him in only a few laps. You can really see how much he's able to out turn Ronald, especially later in the race when Ronald's car started to push.
