Reflex Racing have introduced the floating servo conversion chassis for the Roche P12 1/12th scale pan car. The conversion kit maintains the stock geometry of the P12, while adding optional holes to install longer Xray side links as well as Reflex Racing’s popular floating servo mount. On top of that the chassis is made from 2.5mm quasi isotropic carbon fibre, so it is more rigid than the kit version for more consistency in high-bite conditions.
Following the recent introduction of the RSD RR12V2 conversion kit, Reflex Racing now also released information on the RR12V2 full kit. The car is based on a new chassis made of 2.3mm quasi weave carbon fibre for improved stiffness, a lower weight and a lower centre of gravity. An updated pod geometry with the pivot 2mm further forward provides more corner speed and less lift while allowing for more aggressive settings. Also new is the battery securing systems that provides tape-less transverse of inline mounting of the 1S pack. Another new feature is a revised side spring placement with optional, more in board positions to aid in a softer roll control for high bite conditions. Lastly, the new front end is Reflex Racing’s icing on the cake. A new, light weight double A-arm front end is included in the kit. This system is incorporating a suspension system that is 10 to 15g lighter than the traditional AE front ends, it is easier to adjust and versatile enough to run as a double A-arm or traditional reverse McPherson strut. The car will be offered in two trims, as full kit minus electronics, wheels, tires, servo saver and fluids and also as full conversion including RSD front end. The latter needs a donor car for diff, tubes, shock, and ball ends.
Reflex Racing have introduced the RSD RR12V2 carbon upgrade kit that comprises of all new carbon parts to convert the RR12 car to the new geometry the team has been running. The kit allows the car to have a wider set up window, it generates more corner speed and is simply faster than the V1. Included with the kit come new thinner 2.3mm quasi weave carbon parts that are lighter yet stronger than the standard weave 2.5mm parts. Since the parts are thinner they also help lowering the centre of gravity. A new pod geometry with the pivot 2mm further forward provides more corner speed and less lift while allowing for more aggressive settings. The car’s battery holding system, whether in transverse of inline, has been revised to provide tape-less solutions and more secure holding of the battery. All shapes have been optimised for clearance, flex and ease of use and last but not least the side springs now have optional, more in board positions, to aid in a softer roll control for high-bite conditions.
Coming from Reflex Racing and made for a range of touring cars including the Xray T4 are several shock spring sets. First up is the 20mm Progressive Spring set for the Xray T4. Progressive springs generate more traction than linear springs due to the dynamic of the compression of the spring. Early in the compression, when the spring needs to be soft to provide bite, they are softer and later in the roll, they stiffen up to provide more exit and on power traction and steering. The set comprises of three different rates of Yellow 13.0-14.0 lb/in, Gold 14.0-15.0 lb/in and Silver 15.0-16.0 lb/in.

Reflex Racing now have the RR10 World GT 1/10th pan car kit available. Designed from scratch and with customer feedback Reflex Racing tried to make a World GT that has more steering and less traction roll while maintaining the versatile nature of the RSD line of cars. The car is based on a narrow chassis with a 1.5mm pocket for the battery pack, making for a super low centre of gravity while the floating servo mount does away with tweak issues associated with the off-set servo position found in pan cars. The kit is also fitted with a lot of go fast, premium goodies such as the Xenon front end, IRS diff, Team Prime shocks and an array of RSD springs and shims are included in the kit to fine-tune your car out of the box.

Reflex Racing have new option parts for the RSD RR12 1/12th scale pan car available in the form of AE bolt pattern front ride height shims and a “high grip” rear chassis brace. Starting with the ride height shims, two sets are available with a 2-piece set of 1.0mm carbon fibre shims and a 4-piece assortment of two 0.8mm and two 0.5mm metal shims. The slotted shims allow to fine-tune the front ride height on the RR12 and all cars with the new-style Team Associated bolt pattern front end.

Reflex Racing have introduced the new RSD ride height gauge for 1/10th and 1/12th on-road cars. Coming as pair and made from black anodised and laser-etched aluminium the gauges offer a measurement range of 2.5mm to 6mm in 0.5mm increments and the split design helps to finely and precisely adjust the ride height of “slider style” 1/12th rear ends as well as 1/10th touring cars as both sides of the chassis can be measured at the same time.

Reflex Racing introduce the RSD X12 Old School Front End conversion kit for the Xray X12 1/12th scale pan car. Designed for the use with no camber gain “old school” front end suspensions the converted car will be dialled especially for high-bite surfaces found at big races. Included in the set are all needed carbon pieces including RSD’s own servo mount as well as the shock unimount.
