Made for the Pro-Line Pro-2 but also the Traxxas Slash 2WD and the Electric Rustler is this aluminium steering rack from Pro-Line. The increased steering response and precision provided by the set will lead to faster lap times and also more fun while bashing. The kit includes ball bearings for silky smooth steering action and eliminates the servo saver for maximum steering. As an added bonus the centre steering link is made out of carbon fibre for the ultimate in lightweight style, stiffness and durability. The rack includes adjustable steering Ackermann holes where the centre holes are Stock, inner holes are more aggressive, and the outer holes are less aggressive for more adjustability.

Pro-Line Electron VTR front tyres

Pro-Line introduce the new Electron VTR front buggy tyre in 2WD and 4WD specification. The Electron shares close family ties with Pro-Line’s Ion tyre with the iconic dirt grabbing centre tread and futuristic styling. The Electron features connected tyre tread technology to improve traction and wear on even the most abrasive of indoor track conditions. The square centre pins laid out between the connected tread provide consistent forward and side bite even when the track gets dusty. The tyre will become available in specific 2WD and 4WD front sizes in Pro-Line’s super soft M4 and special MC clay compound.

Pro-Line LockDown 1/8th buggy tyre

The new Pro-Line LockDown is the next generation of tyre tread technology to 1/8 buggy race tyres, according to Pro-Line. The tyre features variable pin spacing between the centre rows of pins providing maximum forward bite without sacrificing wear. Each pair of closely spaced centre treads are completely connected at the base of the pin creating the “LockDown area” and providing the optimal pin flex even in soft compounds. The unique crossing side tread is meant to provide smooth steering and consistent side traction on even the most edgy and hard to drive tracks. The pin size of the LockDown is in-between the Hole Shot 2.0 and the Blockade so you can have performance similar to the Hole Shot 2.0 with tread life rivalling the Blockade. The tyre is available in Pro-Line’s X2 to X4 and M2 to M4 rubber and will later also be available pre-mounted on white Velocity wheels.
