Rack and Pinion

500 lb formula car manual steering rack

It's only wednesday. 

These raw materials arrived sunday night. 

This product is extremely easy to assemble/disassemble and the CNC process is lightning fast! 

The rack length is customized for each car. Rack and pinion with easy lash adjustment. But the main perk with this rack is LIGHT WEIGHT. In its current state is weighs just 2.6 lbs! The pegasus rack weighs a whopping 5 lbs, and is the only viable competitor. Here it is in finished form





Many thanks for the design created by Mike Daniel at Falcon Taps modeled after the Pegasus racing rack.
Alot more to come on this project : - )
