Pro-Line Invader 1/8th buggy tyre

Pro-Line have introduced their new Invader tyre for 1/8th off-road buggies. The next step forward in extreme wear while still providing the fast lap performance, the unique interlocking cross-shaped Invader pins down the centre of the tyre deliver exceptional tread life, while the small, flexible pins on the side provide optimised grip on a variety of surfaces. The tyre is meant to feel super smooth and accelerate and brake incredibly straight, giving an advantage in close racing conditions. The tyre comes as pair including blue closed cell inserts and it is available in soft M3, super soft M4, medium S2 and soft S3 compounds.

Protoform white Formula front & rear wings

Protoform’s recently introduced new V2 front wing as well as their 1723-04 rear wing are now also available in a white colour option. The V2 front wing features 3-way adjustability to suit any condition your track throws at you: a low-downforce option, a medium downforce with 1-element add-on winglet, or a high-downforce, 2-element add-on winglet for maximum steering feel. The tall wing endplates enhance straight-line stability and side-bite in long sweepers. Inspired by popular American open-wheel cars from the late 90s, PF also incorporated additional ground clearance at the outer extremities, especially important on U.S. style high-grip carpet. The rear wing is inspired by real Formula wing styling. This wing will give any 1/10th scale Formula car an unmistakable look on the track. The rear wing is a true multi-element design featuring slots in the side dams, just like the full-scale cars. The middle element features an emblazoned PF icon. Rear downforce can be tuned by removing either of the upper elements, creating a “Monza-style” setup for high speed tracks. The wings are made from sleek, matte-finished, ultra-durable nylon and will fit most popular Formula cars.
