Remarks – Better known as one of the quickest 1:8 drivers in the World but a 1:10 Worlds Podium finisher, Simon is making one of his rare 1:10 outings with Shepherd’s new 2019 Velox.  Unlike team-mate Eduardo Escandon who is running the preproduction car of the 2019 kit, Simon is running a full production kit which went on sale last week.   The key feature of the new car is an updated rear end.  A new rear axle allows the use of shorter arms which now mount lower in the car.  A new shock tower is also added to accommodate mounting the shocks to the new arms.
