There will be a V10 "eleven"! The distributor in Switzerland is making preorders for those kits. I don't know which main differences there will be, but a V10 "eleven" is going to be on the market soon.

Hey there!

At the moment there is a shipment on it's way to Josh Cyrul, our US distributor. So the US shops should have the springs back in stock soon.

There will be a Velox V10 "Eleven" too, but as mentioned before, it "only" contains some additional option parts. Stay tuned for more infos coming soon.

Best regards
Patrick

Hi Thunderbunny , i had that problem and that happend because with the use of the belt tensioner screw, the plastic of the roll bar don´t tight enough after some races of use, causing the side belt broke or fast wear , i fix this problem using a longer screw with a lock nut inside the roll bar, then you can tighten the nut as much as you want and it will not move never again, we are 6 velox v10 drivers in México and all have this mod done to our cars. Hope this can fix your problem. here are some photos

Is that an available Shepherd option? Thanks.

What rear end setup are you currently running?
I run near kit setup apart from lower hinge pins lifted and 650cst oil, then with 3 deg toe in the rear is absolutely planted, usually end up just backing the toe in off till I get the right balance
