Moulded using a specially formulated composite material the suspension arms offer increased stiffness compared to the already available medium and hard arms, optimising the truck’s performance especially on high and very high bite surfaces. The arms are of a symmetrical design, allowing to use them on the left and right hand side of the truck and they are available separately for the front and rear end.

VBC Racing FF17 1/10th FWD touring car kit

Coming soon from VBC Racing is the FF17 1/10th scale FWD touring car kit. A nearly complete redesign compared to the company’s previous front wheel driven car, the FF17 features a new gearbox with aluminium side plates and hardened alloy gears, it comes with a redesigned steering with new steering geometry and the updated shock absorbers make for smooth operation. The chassis is cut from high-quality carbon fibre, it utilises standard or shorty battery packs and allows for inline or transverse battery layouts. The vertical upper deck keeps the whole chassis assembly tweak-free even after harsh racing incidents and the lower chassis plate allows for easy mounting of brass weights to fine-tune the car’s weight bias. The car is available as rolling chassis kit or as bundle including a Speed Passion Reventon Stock Club Race speed controller and a MMM Competition 3.0 21.5T motor and it will hit stores this January.
