They were designed to replace the standard items with sturdier and more durable ones, doing away with breaking issues associated with the original PL parts. MIP increased the diameter where the shoulder and threading meet for increased strength as well as manufactured these pivot balls using high impact alloy steel. The suspension balls are direct replacements and they come in sets of two.

Pro-Line introduce new “S” rubber compounds

Pro-Line have introduced their all-new “S” rubber compound for their line of 1/8th and 1/10th scale off-road tyres. Available as S2 medium and S3 soft variants, the compounds are similar to the X2 ultra-long-lasting and X3 long-lasting compound, however they are a substantial leap forward in terms of grip in dry and slick conditions. Another massive improvement with the S2 and S3 rubber is that the tyres stays stable throughout long main events and do not fade or get soft near the end of the race. The rubber is available for all popular 1/8th buggy and VTR truggy tyres and also for select 1/10th tyres. The full range can be found here.

Pro-Line Positron VTR 4.0 & Pyramid 2WD tyres

Pro-Line have introduced two new competition off-road tyres in the form of the Positron VTR 4.0” 1/8th truck and Pyramid 2.2” 2WD buggy front tyre. Starting with the Positron, the tyre was designed from the ground up with an all-new and futuristic directional tread design for improved grip and corner speed on indoor clay tracks. The tread design pays homage to the Electron and Ion tyre before it with the two centre pins boxed in by connected bars for a familiar Pro-Line signature look. From there the connected bars shoot off at angles that have been specifically designed to provide maximum forward bite combined with exceptional corner speed and durability. The Positron is directional, which adds another tuning option for the racers always looking for that extra edge since it will perform differently depending on which direction it is run. The tyre comes including blue closed cell inserts and in super soft M4 or MC clay compounds.
