DE Racing Tank Pull kits & Tire spikes

DE Racing, best known for their skid plates, have released two new products with their tank pull kits and tire spikes. The tank pull kit is a sleek, simple and truly universal fueling solution for your nitro powered vehicle. No more playing ‘tank pull engineer’ only to end up with an unrefined look or using a ridged plastic loop that’s a snag away from emptying your tank. Available in multiple colours, they are easy to install and allow your pit man a strong grip to open your tank lid. Also new in both buggy and truggy tire versions, are these new tire spikes, which are a simple and effective way to keep up to 4 tires securely kept together for transport or storing. Also available in a wide range of colours.
