CEFX Griffin 12 2011 conversion
Since its release in 2009, the Griffin 12 Conversion has been a leading contender if not dominating the 1/12 Modified scene. Since the prototype TQ’d the IIC in 2009, the Griffin has gone on to win back to back Snowbird Nationals and ROAR Nationals. Add in a victory at the 2010 IIC, dominating performance at the U.S. Indoor Championships, IFMAR WC Finalist in Germany, several other TQ’s and wins and the CEFX Griffin has set a very high bar in 1/12 performance. For 2011-2012 season, CEFX have decided to add in a few features to give Griffin users more options. Small shape changes to the chassis to improves stiffness along with tape slots and a raised center shock position now allow the Griffin user the option of multiple battery positions – the usual forward/back position as the standard Griffin but now also the option to run the battery turned ‘inline’. New tape slots and simple locators to run the battery on either side of the Griffin make it possible to maximize the balance and CG on different tracks depending on the main direction of corners. By request of our racers, we will also be making a ‘flexi’ Asphalt chassis in the same cut pattern as the Griffin 2011 chassis.

CEFX Griffin & Lithium chassis updates
New from Josh Cyrul’s CEFX is their new line pan cars that have been adapted from previous models to accept LiPo 1S packs. Currently in production are CEFX’s newest 12th and 10th WGT cars. Not to be confused with our previous Phoenix t-bar cars, the Griffin is now a link based car to adapt to the needs of 1S Lipo racing. Also receiving an update is the Lithium 1/10th Oval conversion kit which has received minor updates to maximize it’s potential for the switch from 2S to 1S LiPo batteries.

CEFX parts for Corally RDX Phi
Josh Cyrul from CEFX has announced that his company has designed and manufactured a carpet upgrade kit for the Corally RDX Phi that includes chassis, front shock tower, rear shock tower and steering extension. Prior to last years Snowbirds, CEFX made a 3mm chassis for the Phi that only the modified team drivers used on their cars, and following a lot more testing with team driver Mike Blackstock they made some updates to all these parts. The results speak for themselves with several race wins coming from the updated/stiffer components and now these new parts are available to buy, but only in limited quantities.

CEFX C12 Phoenix 1/12th scale
A while ago we showed you some CAD images from the new C12 1/12th scale from Josh Cyrul’s company CEFX, well it appears the car is now ready and here are some photos of the new car, the C12 Phoenix. This is the version for brushless motors, which as explained previously had to be made seperately from the original brushed motor version, as trying to make a car work for both motor types would mean too much of a compromise for both.

CEFX C12 BL 1/12th scale chassis
According to a statement by Josh Cyrul, top racer and designer of CEFX cars and parts, the company will stop trying to make their C12 1/12th scale chassis suitable for both brushed and brushless configurations as the changes needed to make the BL car competitive would compromise the cars setup in non BL configuration too much. Hence the C12 will stay as is and the company will further develop a specific BL version, the first picture of which is shown above.
