Vision Racing TLR 22 4.0 rear shock tower & shock pistons

Coming from Vision Racing are a new carbon fibre rear shock tower and shock pistons for the TLR 22 4.0 buggy. The shock tower, that is designed for the use with the laydown transmission, is made of 5mm carbon fibre and it incorporates micro tune shock positioning by adding two in between holes to the standard positions of the stock shock tower. The needed mount is made of 7075 aluminium and is anodised black. The two raised portions on the base allow clearance of the transmission case when mounting a rear swaybar kit. On today’s extreme traction tracks less suspension flex is a must. This combo will deliver a more consistent driving car while also improving jumping.

Losi Baja Rey & Rock Rey RTR BND trucks

Losi have announced the soon release of their new Baja Rey and Rock Rey 4WD 1/10th scale BND kits. The proven Baja Rey desert truck is built on one of the most advanced chassis ever conceived for a ready-to-run vehicle. It comes equipped with a Dynamite 3800Kv brushless power system, as well as a long-travel suspension, so owners can tear across all types of terrain at speeds of 70km/h or more. The chassis design blends scale realism with functional 4WD capabilities. The foundation consists of a 3mm, anodised aluminium chassis plate that is integrated with a realistic roll cage made of super-tough composite material. To this it adds a long-travel, independent front suspension and 4-link live rear axle that look and function exactly like their full-scale counterparts. The single-speed transmission, as well as the front and centre diffs, are sealed against the elements and engineered to handle the abuse of a high-output brushless motor and punishing terrain. Mod 1 gears further increase the durability of this desert beast. The long-travel shocks soak up the energy from big bumps and jumps. They also feature threaded shock bodies with adjustment collars so owners can fine tune the pre-load settings of the coil-over springs. External bump stops provide plush landings on the hardest surfaces. The Rock Rey builds on the same chassis technology but comes with a rock racer body shell and larger 2.2” x 5.8″ wheels and tyres. Both vehicles come factory-assembled and including a Spectrum SRS6000 receiver with Active Vehicle Control, meaning owners can use an existing or choose a new Spektrum DSMR transmitter to get the trucks going in no time.

Exotek Rock Rey alloy diff case & steel brake disks

Exotek have introduced two new option parts for the Losi Rock Rey kits in the form of a heavy duty aluminium diff gear case and a stainless steel brake disk set. Starting with the diff case, the item was designed for the front or rear of the Losi Rock or Baja Rey vehicles. It includes bigger-than-stock steel diff screws to prevent blowing out the gear diff under heavy loads. Also new is a drilled stainless steel hex brake disk set for the Rey series of off-road cars. The 1-piece design combines the brake disk and wheel hex for increased durability and true wheel alignment. Drilled vented slots add realism and style to the ride. The set includes four brake disks and it is a direct fit.

Plus, the new rack style bellcrank steering assembly makes for easy Ackermann changes and overall improved steering geometry. Additional advances include an updated front hood, upgraded brakes, and hard anodised bleeder caps and shock bodies for improved shock performance.

Losi 22S ST 2WD brushless RTR

Horizon Hobby have introduced the new Losi 22S ST 2WD brushless ready-to-run stadium truck. Based on the Team Losi Racing 22 platform, the all-new Losi 22S ST RTR has taken the performance and durability of the 22 and maximised it to become a Ready-to-Run performance stadium truck. A powerful Dynamite brushless system provides a great amount of speed and power that’s completely manageable with the aid of AVC Active Vehicle Control technology. The get-up-and-go of the 22S is easily handled by the race-inspired suspension of the championship-winning 22 race platform. With user-friendly design concepts, like a bottom loading battery compartment and a chassis designed to be extremely easy to wrench on, owners can spend more time racing and less time swapping batteries or wrenching on the truck. Additionally, if owners want to take their experience to the next level, they can upgrade the Losi 22S ST with various Team Losi Racing 22 platform option parts and accessories.
