Avid XB2 ’24/25 Arm Mounts | Rear Roll Center Holder

Avid Racing Concepts is testing the market with a limited release of a number of new aftermarket parts for the Xray XB2 ’24/25 1:10 2WD Buggy. The -2° C Arm Mount was first innovated by the US company for the B6.3 and has turned into a must-have if you are racing on high bite surfaces such as carpet or turf. This mount frees up the vehicle in the turns and when landing jumps sideways such as corner tabletops. Typically, to get to the low rear toe settings that you need on carpet, you have to start narrowing the pills through the D Mount which is increasing side bite by decreasing your track-width. Their C Arm mount prevents that from happening by widening the C pivot block, thus starting you at 1 deg of rear toe with centered pills on the C and D mount instead of 3.

Announcing the signing of the 25-year-old, Yokomo said, ‘We are truly honoured to introduce Natanaele Senesi to as new Yokomo Italy official team-driver for the 1/10 TC class. We believe it is a truly great pleasure that the reigning European Champion and eleven-time Italian Champion of the 1/8 GT class wants to compete in the 1/10 TC with us. It is certainly a new challenge, not an easy one, but we are happy that Natanaele had faith in our newborn MS1.0 to undertake this journey. Thanks Natan and good luck!’

MIBO International 2025 – Announcement

Counting Michal Orlowski, Ronald Volker, Bruno Coelho and Joern Nuemann among its previous winners, MIBO International returns for a third edition in 2025 with former international touring car racer Michal Bok confirming February 07-09 as the date for the Czech based event. A long time dream of Bok to host his own major international event in Hrotovice, the indoor event finally came to fruition in 2023 bringing together both electric onroad and offroad racing on two tracks build side by side by the team from Mibosport. The first edition of MIBO International saw the Mugen of Volker crowned the inaugural Touring Car Champion and Coelho’s Xrays take double buggy honours at the Sport V Hotel venue. The 2024 edition would see Orlowski steer his Schumacher to the Touring Car victory while on the offroad track Neumann’s Sworkz took the 2WD honours and young Bartek Zalewski took 4WD from Xray team-mate Martin Bayer. With everything from the track, restaurant, bowling alley and hotel rooms all under one roof, the venue is always a hit with racers. With a capped entry limit the relaxed schedule also means plenty of time in the evening to wind down and socialise over dinner after each day’s racing. Officially a two and a half day event, the event gets underway on Friday evening with practice to allow for travel Friday morning. The full list of Onroad and Offroad Classes, plus the opening of registration, for the 2025 MIBO International will be announced shortly.
