Exotek Racing EXO104 conversion kit

Exotek Racing’s new EXO104 is a high performance, lightweight chassis conversion that gives the F104 the competitive edge thanks to the improved chassis work and floating rear pod. Using actual components from the World Champion Yokomo 1/12th, they have re-engineered the rear pod into a 5 link floating rear pod for superior rear traction and stability. The kit includes a VCS through shaft center oil shock to perform tweak free side dampening together with a carbon fibre 1 piece top deck to reduce tweak and allow just enough flex to maintain proper traction.

Exotek JRX-S Type R LiPo top plate

In news that is really only of interest to our friend Lucas Urbain from France, Exotek Racing have released this LiPo top plate for the Losi JRX-S Type R. Made from 2.3mm carbon fibre, it is designed to enhance rubber tire performance by generating similar chassis flex traits of the current generation of sedans giving slightly more flex, but not too much. It also allows the use of bullet connector type batteries. The set includes self threading battery plate screw down tabs to eliminate the need for the stock alloy versions.
