Notes – The leading Shepherd at the end of qualifying here in Chile, Tim’s Velox V8.3 is fitted with Shepherd’s optional carbon chassis inserts front and rear, hard plastics, low friction belts and pulleys, and 9mm carbon Ackermann plate. He has also opted to run Shepherd’s old HT (high traction) radio plate. Equipped with Brilliant RC titanium hinge pins, Aluminium Pivot Ball, and Titanium Screw kit, the car runs on a Racing Edge bearing set. The car is running an Infinity front bumper which larger and lighter than standard Shepherd one for better aero. On the engine side Hasi Tuned has made a special ‘Chile WC’ head for the occasion and in the clutch he is using a Safety Car Model Proto clutch spring.
