LRP TCM Updated Battery rules

The organisers of the 11th annual LRP Touring Car Masters, thats taking place in the Rhein-Neckar-Hall in Eppelheim near Heidelberg from 28th to 30th March have updated their rules regarding the batteries for the Masters class.

Because of multiple requests by drivers the batteries on the 2008 EFRA list are also allowed in the Masters class. The 2008 Efra list is actually effective for races from 1st April 2008 but many drivers already bought these new batteries so we decided to allow them. Go to the LRP site in the link below to find the 2007 and 2008 Efra lists as PDFs. Batteries you can not find on these lists or batteries with other heat shrinks are not allowed in the Masters class.

Alberto Garcia takes Spanish Nats Rd1

Last weekend saw the first round of the Spanish Electric Buggy Nationals held at Sevilla in 25º degree heat. The racers were greeted with a bumpy and dusty track with two double jumps that were causing the most difficulty for those present. Qualifying saw current Spanish National Champion Alberto Garcia take TQ in both the 4wd and 2wd classes, with the LRP team driver managing to also take the win in both classes. In the 4wd class, he placed ahead of Agusti Salto Font in 2nd place and Zacarias Villalba Nilsson in 3rd, while in the 2wd class it saw the runner up spot go to Alberto Cano Borregon with Jose Miguel Cantos Davia taking the final step on the podium.

LRP Vector X11 Front & Back plates

Seen on the LRP stand at the toy fair a few weeks ago and on the motors of team drivers prior to that, LRP have released a range of aluminium plates for the LRP Vector X11 range of brushless motors. Starting with this backplate with its cool black machined aluminium look, this tuning part includes cooling fins for better heat dissipation. For the front of the motor there are a pair of cover plates that improve the cooling of the motor increasing its performance, while the design of the plates means they are lighter than the standard part. Available in 2 thicknesses, the thinner front cover moves the motor more to the centreline of the car resulting in a different weight distribution of the car.
