Avid Triad Evo slipper plates

Avid introduce their new Triad Evo slipper clutch. It utilises a new plate design that is self-centring so there is no longer a need for the three hard-to-mount black washers. Avid also added three vented slots in order to remove some rotating mass and to help with cooling the plates during a vented operation. The original Triad slipper clutch kits will have a running name change to Triad Evo and will include the new Evo plates along with a new set of install instructions. The Evo plates are also available separately if racers would like to upgrade their current slipper, nothing else is needed. They are compatible on every vehicle except the Durango conversion. Due to the nature of the Durango design they are too tight for operation so now the Durango upgrade kit will include two original Triad plates without any price change. For customers that just recently purchased a Triad slipper and have yet to use it, Avid will honour a free exchange of the original plates for the new Evo plates.

HemiStorm Addict Baja 5B bodyshell

HemiStorm have the new Addict bodyshell for the HPI Baja 5B large scale buggy available. Made from high-quality 1.5mm polycarbonate the 5-piece body is of a somewhat different shape compared to the kit body in order to give the 5B a fresh new look. First up are longer sidepods that keep away dust and debris from the crucial parts such as the clutch and pullstart. Additional width ensures sufficient cooling while underneath the skid plate there is a stepped line allowing for extra ground clearance in rough terrain. The body panels also give enough room for Outerwear’s prefilter while the raised front makes it easier to run upgraded linkage setups or additional electronics. Also included with the body comes a paintable lightweight roof that replaces the stock aluminium roof piece.
