Ride DF 190mm touring car wing set

Coming from Ride is their new DF wing set for 190mm touring car body shells. Inspired by nature design the wings sport specially-shaped wave sections – as seen on dragonfly wings – to create downforce even at low air speeds. The set includes a type A wing for medium to high speed tracks and Modified classes, sporting a full-face wave section, while the type B wing was designed for low to medium speeds and Stock racing classes – the latter wing only utilises wave sections on the outer portions. Included in the set are four printed carbon fibre side plates and the wings are usable for most 190mm touring car body shells.

JConcepts motor & rotor storage box

JConcepts has reached into their bag of tricks to help racer organisation with the introduction of their new motor and rotor storage box. The box includes plenty of space for assembled motors, individually spaced rotors and a pocket for miscellaneous motor tuning items. The box has a small footprint which makes it ideal for short trips with minimal amounts of space. Inside the box is roomy enough for three assembled motors and cushioned with high-impact foam that allow the items to lay in a bed like a cradle during rest periods. At the other end, five areas can house rotors and the pocket at the end gives all-important extra storage. The foam insert material has a grabby feel and allows the user to manipulate to grab needed items. The custom built storage box, moulded black in colour has JConcepts.net logo for authenticity and built-in plastic latch for easy open and close operation.
