PR Racing have announced the release of new Ti-Ni-coated shock shafts for their Type R kits. Coming as 42mm long front and 49mm long rear variants, the Titanium-Nitride-coated shafts will offer less wear in heavy duty off-road applications while ensuring smooth shock action. The shafts are available in 2-piece sets including piston mounting hardware.

Coming soon from PR Racing is the S1 V3R Ev0 2WD buggy kit. The main focus has been to make the car smoother and easier to drive on track, and this has been achieved with a revised 2.5mm thick -5mm length 7075 aluminium chassis. In addition new insert-type hangers have been introduced, and in conjunction with the chassis design allow for much lower rear roll centre, keeping the car much flatter on track with smoother rotation. New Ackerman geometry, and new CNC rear hubs with longer link positions also improve on track driveability. A new motor mount has been produced to lower the motor 2mm into a recess in the chassis, and makes a particular difference on today’s high grip tracks. In addition to all the geometry and mechanical changes, the V3R Evo has been treated to a new body, designed to look sleek and offer more steering with its much larger forward mounted cabin. The kit comes with a host of optionals such as CNC alloy servo mount, 4 degrees alloy caster blocks, front camber plates, vented slipper plates, a swaybar set and 34T alloy idler gear and it will hit stores in June.

T-Works have introduced several titanium option parts for the popular PR Racing SB401 Type-R 1/10th scale 4WD off-road buggy. Available are a 105-pice set of UFO head screws, a titanium ball end set as well as a titanium turnbuckle kit. All parts are machined from high-quality 64 grade titanium that will help to reduce overall weight while being highly corrosion resistant. The turnbuckle set also includes a suitable wrench, making building and setup changes a breeze.
PR Racing have introduced their new “rear shifted” aluminium Ackermann plate set for the S1v3 platform. Thanks to an optimised steering geometry the steering will feel less aggressive which can be a benefit in several track conditions. The plate offers two different mounting positions for the inner steering link ball studs and it comes including mounting hardware.

Following a first teaser image PR Racing have released first information on their new SB401-R 1/10th scale 4WD competition buggy kit. A number of key components have underwent a redesign to create a faster, quieter and easier to maintain and tune platform while also greatly improving overall performance. The main focus has been set on the all-new narrow 2mm 7075-T6 aluminium chassis and composite side-pods, which utilise a carbon fibre re-enforced spine to control torsional and longitudinal flex. The additional flex has proved to increase grip, and make the car feel more balanced and easier to drive leading to faster, more consistent laps. Other features include new stronger and quieter transmission gears, a vented slipper assembly as well as 12.75mm diameter Type-R shock absorbers, new shorter and grey-coloured ball cups as well as new high-tensile steel turnbuckles. All that is topped off by an ultra low centre of gravity body shell. The kit is set for a release this Fall.
