| Xray T4 8mm aluminium steering plate Posted: 28 Nov 2019 07:10 AM PST Coming from Xray is their new 8mm steering plate for the T4 series of touring cars. The part was developed to improve cornering speed as it offers less steering response and it is recommended for large asphalt tracks with long sweepers in order to improve cornering speed or for the use on very technical carpet tracks to eliminate oversteering in the chicanes. According to Xray‘s Alexander Hagberg: “[The steering plate offers] smoother initial, but more mid to exit steering”. The bearings are factory pressed into the black anodised high-quality aluminium steering plate which eliminates play in the assembly.
