Reflex Racing RSD7 2015 touring car kit

Reflex Racing introduce the RSD7 2015 electric touring car kit based on the Team Associated TC6.2. After close to a year of development on the TC6.2 platform, Reflex Racing have decided to package together their essential upgrades to release the RSD7 2015. The kit includes all the parts needed to build a rolling chassis kit and as it is based off of the TC6.2, the box includes the original TC6.2 chassis plus the RSD7 aluminium chassis, providing you with two different chassis to build with. Other option parts that made it into the box are the lightweight suspension kit, an aluminium inner servo mount, an adjustable carbon fibre battery stop, RSD TC6.2 springs, 315 pistons and soft bladders beside other gizmos. The kit is available now for pre-order and will become available end of September to early October.

Exotek 22 2.0 & SC6 carbon front shock towers

Exotek 22 2.0 & SC6 carbon front shock towers

Exotek introduce two carbon fibre front shock towers for the TLR 22 2.0 and the Kyosho SC6 truck. Starting with the TLR part, the shock tower is made of 5mm high-quality carbon fibre and much stiffer and stronger than the original composite item resulting in a more consistent damper action. Extra machining reduces unnecessary weight while improving airflow through the shock stay at the same time. The tower fits both the 22 and newer 22 2.0. Also new and made for the Kyosho SC6 and RT6 is a 4mm front shock tower. Again made to improve shock action the part offers additional outer shock mounting holes for added tuning options while lower countersunk holes insure exact mounting and alignment which is critical for taller shock towers.
