As Paul says above, this conversion is in no way connected to Ansmann Racing, it is merely a set of alloy and carbon components that you can choose to purchase from the manufacturer (Akula) should you feel the need to.

Depending on your style of driving, this could improve or ruin the handling of the car, the choice is yours.

Went well didn't it, I think with a better set of pins and some cut staggers to get a bit more bite on the red carpet it would be absolutly dialled.

Used mine for the first time at weekend and it was very impressive
It was on dry grass and tested back to back against my Durango
And the lap times were very similar, but this was first time out with the car and my Durango has had 6 months of set up time on it, the Acula felt very quick and responsive and next time out I shall stiffen the front end up a tad and proberbly add a little weight under the battery's
Nice car

At the moment it's looking like it will be available by the end of next week - but there will be an official announcement later this week when we've got confirmed delivery dates from all of our suppliers.
