C.Andy’s introduce their C1 sanding adapter designed for the use with 1/12 scale on-road tyres. The special design incorporated three bolts that hold the rim in place during the tyre truing process and prevent a deformation of the rim as often found on systems that only use a central nut to hold the wheel in place. This results in a perfectly trued tyre and a maximised contact patch right from the start. The adapter is available in two versions for Mobgum and CRC pre-glued tyres.

Previously released for the RX8, Xray have now released these conical clutch washer springs for the NT1 clutch. These spring washers offer more consistent clutch operation for maximum punch.

This new conical clutch washer spring set allows the clutch to retain its setting for a very long time without needing readjustment.
