ROCHE 151017 Rapide P10 WGTR Pan Car Kit 1/10 - Precision Build  [RH-151017]

Overview for the ROCHE 151017 Rapide P10 WGTR Pan Car

The ROCHE 151017 Rapide P10 WGTR is a purpose-built 1/10 scale pan car kit aimed at enthusiasts who prioritise setup control and consistency. The package mixes high-grade graphite with machined aluminum to provide a predictable platform for fine-tuning handling.

Materials and Chassis Behaviour

The main chassis is made from 2.5mm high-grade USA graphite combined with a rigid lower pod plate to keep mass low while reducing unwanted flex. The dual upper deck layout gives precise flex tuning options to suit varying grip conditions.

Suspension Setup and Steering Feel

A 7075 aluminium front suspension mount plate provides adjustable wheelbase options to alter steering bite. The DVS-W big bore centre damper and low-friction pivot balls reduce friction and improve the suspension's ability to track uneven surfaces.

Setup Versatility for Different Tracks

Racers can fit micro or low-profile servos on the floating servo plate and change pod link angles to alter roll centre and steering characteristics. The ball differential and carbon main shaft offer consistent drivetrain behaviour under load.

Practical Notes from Club Racers

Within club racing, the Rapide P10 WGTR stands out for its balance of light construction and durable running parts. Components such as the 64 pitch spur gear and thrust ball bearing differential are practical choices for frequent tuning and hard use.

The ROCHE 151017 Rapide P10 WGTR is ideal for hobbyists seeking a tunable pan car platform that responds to detailed setup changes.
