New rule rules Canas out of Spanish Championship

Defending Spanish National Champion & professional 1:8 Offroad racer Juan Carlos Canas is to miss this weekend’s opening round of the National eBuggy Championship after a new administration process introduced by the national governing body AECAR. The factory Sworkz driver appears to have missed a new 24-hour registration window and has no entry for the opening encounter of the highly competitive national championship. Making a post on social media Canas, who won the nitro season opener, explained that once he noticed entries had opened, and given he was racing in the US with an 8-hour time difference, he made his entry and payment. However it was only when he contacted a ‘delegate of Spain’ about the race at RC Silla that he discovered he didn’t have a place due to the new 24-hour rule.

Xray XB4 Slipper Eliminator Set for One-Way Clutch

Xray has released this Slipper Eliminator Set for One-Way Slipper Clutch on its XB4 1:10 4WD Buggy. The specially designed slipper eliminator set is intended for stock class racing, combining the efficiency of a solid axle on-power with the drivability benefits of a one-way system off-power. The slipper eliminator completely removes the slipper effect on-power, delivering direct drivetrain connection for improved acceleration, sharper throttle response, and more consistent power delivery. Reduced drivetrain rotating mass further enhances efficiency and responsiveness, making the car more reactive under acceleration. Off-power, the system retains the one-way bearing function, reducing front braking influence and helping to stabilize the car on corner entry, during jump landings, and under high-speed deceleration. This results in a calmer, more predictable handling feel, especially in technical track sections. Precision CNC-machined from Premium Swiss 7075 T6 aluminium and outdrives from Hudy Spring Steel, the set offers high strength, low weight, and long-term durability, making it an ideal solution for competitive stock class applications where efficiency and consistency are critical.
