Questions

From Trak Racer’s published terms. Not legal advice.

How long can I return a Trak Racer rig?

Within 14 days of dispatch if unused and not installed; used items may be charged a restocking fee after inspection.

Is a seat included with the TR8 Pro V2?

No. Seat slider rails and brackets come in the box; the seat is bought separately.

What torque does the TR8 Pro handle?

Racing Rig Guide quotes the maker at 25 Nm recommended and 30 Nm without flex; the V2 page itself does not print it.
