ORCA A-Main Finalists in Open Brushless 13.5T at TITC 2012 (February 26, 2012)
TITC 2012 (Thailand International Touring Car Championships) just ended this past weekend with a gruelling 1-week event from February 20-27, 2012 at RC Addict, Bangkok in Thailand. It was the 10th TITC since 2002 which saw more than 350 entries in Mini 2WD, FWD, Open Brushless 13.5T, Modify and Formula class. Most competitive class was the Open Brushless 13.5T which had more than 130 entries from all over the world. The high traction and high speed track was very challenging in terms of getting fast laptimes. Team ORCA with its team driver from Canada, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Malaysia and Singapore showed off their new prototype speedo obviously was one of the fastest car on the straights. But balancing the power and car setup was very crucial this year in getting good laptimes consistently. Team ORCA managed to squeeze in 2 drivers into the Open Brushless 13.5T A-Main, Azri Amri from Malaysia and P.Y.Tang from Singapore. Chau Man Chan, Keith Yu, Antoni Caretti, Michael Lo and Ron Chen Team ORCA Hong Kong, Canada, Australia, Malaysia and Taiwan took 5 spots in the B-Main. Unfortunate contact in the finals dropped Azri Amri to 10th overall, but P.Y.Tang showing some impressive power and handling on his ORCA-XRAY T3'12 in the finals improved 4 position to 6th overall.

T3'12 Graphite Chassis 2.0mm and Graphite Upper Deck 1.6mm now available @ Quantum!
The new 2mm chassis was developed to provide the best possible traction for low-traction conditions. The thinner chassis allows the car to flex more which generates more overall traction.
Important note:
When changing the chassis, the roll centers will be 0.5mm lower compared to the standard chassis. Therefore, to keep the same roll center height you need to use 0.5mm shims under all lower suspension blocks.
