RDRP B6.2 +3mm LCG 7075 aluminium chassis

Available now from Revolution Design Racing Products is the +3mm aluminium chassis for the ultra-popular Team Associated B6.2 2WD buggy. It offers an optimised length for an easier to drive car especially in high-bite track conditions such as EOS carpet and astro turf, allowing to pull faster single laps while offering greater consistency at the same time. The chassis has the same wheelbase specification as the AE91850 B6.2 +3mm chassis and it is machined of aircraft-grade 7075 aluminium for strength and optimised flex characteristics while the black anodised surface ensures high durability and factory looks. Machined silver edge details and laser-etched logos ensure surface protection on the track and visual impact in the pits. What makes the chassis also stand out is a new low-profile motor position that is accessible through a cut out in the chassis and the included 7075-T6 motor plate. Both the chassis and motor plate work exclusively with the laydown gearbox and in addition to the low profile motor position, the main plate also uses a lowered battery position for an even lower overall centre of gravity and cool looks with machined slots left and right of the battery pack compartment. The chassis is compatible with most “under servo” and “under electronics” weight sets.

Exotek have announced the release of new option parts for the Team Associated DR10 drag racing car in the form of a carbon fibre wheelie bar and a slipper eliminator direct spur gear mount.

The assembly is adjustable at the base, using the stock DR10 adjustments, but it is also possible to make finer adjustments on the bar itself so that the driver can tune in the absolute perfect bar height. The wheelie bar is constructed of heavy duty 3mm carbon fiber with alloy support posts.
