Klinik RC 1:8 Offroad adjustable brake collars

Klinik RC has released their new adjustable brake collars intended for 1:8 Offroad racing. In the past brake bias has been a difficult adjustment to make that usually needs to be done on the bench by ‘feel’ prior to taking to the racetrack. Balancing front to rear balance is critical to squeeze that last bit of speed into each corner and have stability at the same time. How many times have you said to yourself “I need a just touch more rear brake” on the drivers stand, only to forget to make the adjustment before the next run? Now you can make that adjustment right in pit lane in seconds! Now all your pit person needs is a 5.5mm nut driver and he can make quick, easy, precise adjustments in just a few seconds. Our unique rounded ball collars allow for nearly 45deg angles to get around the fuel tank and make that quick adjustment! Simply replace your standard brake collars with our adjustable brake collars and get on the track to get that perfect balance! One collar is black and one is red for easy identification of front/rear adjustments.

Racetec 3P .21 3 Port Race Spec Engine

Klinik RC, through its Racetec brand, has released its 3P .21 3 Port Race Spec Offroad engine. Over 12 months in development their first engine release is proudly designed and developed in the USA! Power and mileage has been optimised for todays demanding off-road conditions. Starting this project, their number one goal was to provide a great engine at a forgotten price point. This price point shouldn’t require corners to be cut. The Racetec 3P has a 3+2 port design in a die-cast crankcase. High quality bearings ensure long life and smooth RPMs. Reliable and durable. The Racetec 3P features an alloy/composite 2 needle carburettor. A long low speed needle ensures solid idling, smooth transition to high rpms and solid return to idle. While maximising mileage along the way. A built in heat isolator ensures consistent needle settings and no heat soak. 6.5mm venturi is included. The combustion chamber has been optimised for 20%-30% race fuel. By producing big power with lower nitro content, mileage can increase dramatically. The billet cooling head is lighter and more thermal efficient than cast counterparts and is available in black, blue, red or pink.

Racetec low profile cooling heads

Klinik RC has through their Racetec brand released new lightweight billet machined low profile cooling heads for O.S. and other similar engines. Cast stock heads are very heavy (70-90g) and not very efficient dissipating heat from your engine. Machined aluminium has 2x the thermal conductivity vs cast and the head weighs in at 30-40% less (53g) than the cast counterpart, significantly lowering COG. Machined from billet stock aluminium they are anodised in black, pink, red or blue and finished with lasering on the Racetec logos.

Klinik RC universal pro droop system

One of the most critical adjustments on 1/8 Buggies and Truggies is droop. After doing months of research with all the available tools on the market Klinik RC feel there was a better way. Some were almost 1mm off from advertised measurements, inconsistent and frankly poor quality. They wanted a system that is precise, consistent, super simple, small and lightweight for hauling. Measuring shock length only goes so far. The inconsistencies possible in hubs, arms, links, left to right and front to back is incredible. Tighten up your race program with Klinik RC’s universal pro droop system. This set works on both Buggy and Truggy and no other pieces need to be purchased. Machined from premium 3mm carbon fibre, weighs close to nothing and fits in the palm of your hand. The system comes with a super handy pouch to store components when not in use. “0” on the gauge indicates the centre of the axle is set to the bottom of the chassis, “+” indicates droop above the chassis, while “-” indicates droop below the chassis. Very simple.
