Ultimate Racing Alu Steering Ball Link Protector

Spanish company Modelix Racing, through its Ultimate Racing brand, has released this Aluminium Steering Ball Link Protector. Machined from T6-7075 aluminium and anodised in dark grey if you are tired of having to change steering ball links frequently this is for you. Designed to fit the ball link to prevent the rims from rubbing when turning the wheels and weakening the ball link. In terms of mounting no glue is required. Place the protectors as far as possible inside the ball joints and thread the tie rod. As the tie rod is threaded, the plastic of the ball joint expands, locking the protector in place.

Procircuit V2 1/8th buggy tyres

Modelix Racing have introduced the new Procircuit V2 series of 1/8th scale buggy tyres that will include updated variants of the popular H-Block, Hot Dice, Addictive and Claymore tyres. The V2 tyres will provide increased traction, side bite and durability thanks to new, softer and more elastic compounds. The V2 series tyres will come in C1 Super Soft (white), C2 Soft (yellow), C3 Medium (orange) and C4 Hard (blue) rubber compounds while the tyre carcass has also been modified and reinforced by adding an inner cross-shaped substructure that adds to the longitudinal rips, helping the wheel, insert and tyre work together in an optimised fashion to provide maximum stability when accelerating as well as in fast corners. The V2 series also features a new insert to make maximum use of the new reinforced structure while improving overall performance with more consistent handling over bumps, effortless jumping and an easy to drive feeling. Lastly the tread patterns have also been revised in order to improve performance while the new high precision injection moulds not only provide a nice glossy surface, but also a super precise and nice finish to all V2 series tyres.
