Pro-Line BFGoodrich T/A KM3 1.9” crawler tyre

Coming from Pro-Line is their all-new BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 1.9” G8 Rock Terrain truck tyre for scale trucks and rock crawlers. Pro-Line was given early access to the design of the just announced full-size BFG Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 tyre and recreated it for the Scale Crawling community in 1.9” size. Its aggressive tread lugs bite into loose or muddy surfaces and climb over slippery rocks which is further helped by the soft G8 rubber compound. Based on the BFGoodrich Krawler T/A KX symmetric tread design, the Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 features deep, self-cleaning independent tread blocks and linear transverse flex zones to provide the grip that you need to get over the toughest obstacles. Pro-Line’s scaled-down variant fits most 1.9” crawler rims and it comes including suitable foam inserts.

VRP MBX8 carbon fibre rear shock tower spacer

Vision Racing Products have released their new carbon fibre rear shock tower spacer for the Mugen MBX8. This spacer goes between the rear bulkhead and tower to space the whole tower back by 3mm. The spacer re-positions weight reward to accommodate the advancement in light weight wings and wing mounts, in addition to moving the upper shock mounts back to reduce shock bind. All this results in more rear grip that the new MBX8 can benefit. The spacer includes the camber mounts so there is no shimming necessary to keep them in the correct location. The item is made from 3mm carbon fibre and it is available now.

MIP B6.1D Pucks 17.5 drive system

MIP’s popular Puck 17.5 drive system is now also available for Team Associated’s new B6.1D buggy. The lightweight, aluminium-based system is a replacement for the standard steel items and includes a 2-piece aluminium outdrive cup and aluminium outdrive hub assembly, two Bi-metal bones, and the replaceable plastic orange wear Pucks™ that take the place of the inferior steel pins. This combination greatly increases the longevity of the drivetrain and most importantly decreases the drivetrain’s overall rotating mass by about 50 percent. The decrease in weight directly results in quicker acceleration, deceleration, and lower motor temps, making it ideal for 17.5T stock racing classes.
