New In The Pits – LRP Flow X TC Spec

We caught up with LRP’s Aleš Dobnikar who showed us an example of their new Flow X TC Spec coming from their first production batch. The speedo has a completely redesigned power and logic board, and now features very powerful FETs customised for LRP. Aleš was kind enough to open the unit for us so as to show the finishing and the FETs in detail. The system now allows for up to 220A of constant power, and as a prototype has already been crowned World Champion with Ronald Volker in China last September.
