Reds 721 Superveloce Pro Silver Edition

Reds Racing has released a new Ultra Tuned version of 721 Superveloce (Superfast) Pro 3.5cc off-road engine. This tuned engine is a limited edition of only 300 units all around the World. This is the same engine used by Reds Factory Team at the 2022 IFMAR Worlds in Redovan together with our new 2113 X-One pipe. Reds’ main goal was to develop a faster engine compared to the Superveloce which is able to guarantee good fuel mileage. Thanks to the special modification to the sleeve and crankshaft we managed to make it even faster than the Superveloce and at the same time drivable. Furthermore, the combination with the new 2113 X-One pipe allowed them to create this new monster tuned engine. This engine is suitable for tracks where a more powerful unit will give you an advantage. The Superveloce is a classic 3.5cc 7 ports engine, a feature that has now become REDS Racing trademark, it can be used for both 1/8 buggy and truggy. Thanks to the AirBoost backplate and Extra Tuning by Mario Rossi the new engine has an extremely linear power delivery, which makes it super powerful but at the same time drivable.

Avid Ringer Bullet Plug Grips

Avid Racing Concepts have released these Ringer Bullet Plug Grips. Bullet grips have been around for a few years now and Avid figured it was time for them to put their take on these handy parts. First, they ergonomically shaped them to allow for a bit more grip when pulling them out. With a preference for the full stealth look, they did both of the grips in black with positive (+) and negative (-) laser etched on the base of each and included black and red shrink tubing that you can add to your wire for immediate notification. Last but not least they added their Ringer design to these by adding 5 silver highlight rings, one of which is inside the grip which makes these items sparkle like no other.

Protoform Ford Mustang GT body

Protoform is bringing some American Muscle styling to the popular ARRMA Felony 6S platform with the release of the 2021 Ford Mustang GT body. What better way for Blue Fans to deck out their street-basher than with the legendary Ford Mustang nameplate? PF has combined the signature wide-mouth grille, hood scoops, and powerful stance of the 1:1 6th-Gen S550 Mustang with some pro-touring tuner style fender flares to transform the look of your car. Included is a sculpted rear wing to complete the super-scale look. The bodyshell is formed from durable 1.5mm thick high-quality polycarbonate with paint-then-peel overspray film, and it also includes a detailed decal sheet and wing mounting hardware. This body was designed with wider rear fenders as a direct fit for the Felony to clear the 53/107 tires. It will work with Infraction rear tires, but to get the optimal look and fit, you can optionally choose to either widen the rear of your Infraction™ chassis with stock rear tires or use Felony rear tires with modifications to the rear gear ratio.

Leadfinger Racing ‘Beretta’ Inferno MP10 Bodyshell

Following the release of the ‘Beretta’ bodyshell for the Associated RC8 B4 last week, Leadfinger Racing has just released a version of the body Kyosho’s Inferno MP10. With the continued popularity of the newest release of the Kyosho Inferno MP10, there has been growing requests from LFR customer to offer a second body option. Originally designed to bring a fresh look to the 1:8 scene, the ‘Beretta’ was the perfect choice. In testing on the MP10, the Beretta gave the car tighter corner entry and exit, jumped more level in the air, planted itself quicker on landings and gave the car an overall more balanced feel. The body works excellent on both loose and hard packed surfaces. To tie everything together they have added a steeper rake to the windshield while combining both stability and downforce to the roof. The top of the side pods have been equipped with our signature air dams that add functionality and style. On the back the body we molded in tighter shaped ailerons. This combined with a seamless rear fin tops it off for the perfect balanced body. The new Beretta body from Leadfinger Racing is the next generation of aggressive styling and performance. Each body comes with clear overspray film and window masks for ease of painting. Leadfinger Racing stickers are also included.
