Exotek 22 5.0 titanium axle set & 38T idler gear

Two new items for the TLR 22 5.0 from Exotek, starting with this super light titanium axle set. Suitable for the VHA buggy hubs only the new axles help reduce the weight and rotating mass of your driveline for quicker acceleration. Over 40% lighter than the stock steel axles at only 4.2gr each. Next up is a hard anodised 7075 alloy 38T idler gear, a must have for high powered racing applications. This is much stronger than the stock plastic idler gear but not indestructible so it is important to use black or white grease on the gears and reapply frequently to prolong its life along with proper slipper adjustments.

Exotek 22S Extra long ladder wheelie bar set

This extra long carbon fibre wheelie bar from Exotek Racing for the Losi 22S Drag provides extra stable high speed passes. The longer bar gives you more stability than the short stock wheelie bar, for straighter and faster passes without needing to let off the throttle as often. A quick 2 screw adjustment helps raise or lower the bar that allows finer adjustments on the bar itself so that you can tune in the absolute perfect bar height. A must for perfect launches and competitive racing. This mounts to the stock 22S Drag motor guard and uses the stock wheelie wheels and is made of extra heavy duty 3mm carbon fibre with alloy support posts.

Exotek 22S Drag MK3 slipper set & spur gears

From Exotek is their new turbine cooling triple slipper disks for the Losi 22S top shafts for quicker slipper cool downs before the next pass. Provides added consistency due to 3 friction plates and slipper cooling via the extra heat sink fins that also spins as fan blades as the motor turns for increased air flow over the slipper plate therefore helping reduce heat glazing of the slipper pads which results in melted pads. The set includes 3 high grade LCF pro style slipper pads for Octalock type Exotek or Associated spur gears (gear not included). The slipper pads have a small 12mm inner slipper diameter for more surface area for improved slipper efficiency. For this set Exotek also offer high performance machined POM (delrin) spur gears that uses Associated style octalock type spurs and slipper pads. Available in 84T & 81T, the spur gears are 100% machined POM to insure true roundness and are much stiffer and truer than moulded nylon spur gears.

Exotek 22S Drag shock towers & 7mm wheel hexes

Exotek have released a number of new options for the Losi 22S street eliminator car. Starting with this heavy duty 4mm thick carbon fibre front tower, that weighs only 10 grams. Factory racing looks and a much more rigid construction than the stock plastic tower for consistent handling on high grip tracks. It also has an extra outer shock mount location with the remaining holes that matches the stock geometry and works with or without the stock bumper and body mount set. There is also a wider rear tower so that you have the option to mount the shocks more upright or use the included stock settings that matches the stock geometry. Again using 4mm thick carbon fibre for an extra stiff tower that attaches to an alloy base for super secure mounting to your gearbox. The alloy base also provides more secure camber rod mounting for less camber flex with more consistent handling and the upright position of the pivot ball makes it easier for wrenching. Finally there is a pair of wide clamping 7mm heavy duty hex sets for slightly wider width meaning more stability and allows easy mounting, without spacers, of ProLine and JConcepts street eliminator wheels.

Exotek 22S Drag rear hubs & wheelie wheels

For the Losi 22S Drag series Exotek have released two new items starting with these heavy duty rear hub set. The updated design works as either the left or right hub (hubs are non-directional) and also allows you to raise or lower the hub height thanks to the standard and optional hinge pin holes. The upright ball stud mounting matches the stock roll centre height and allows for easy roll centre changes by adding shims under the ball stud. Polished and anodised in black with silver highlights. Also new is these classy CNC machined wheelie wheels for the Losi 22S Drag car. The centre wheel is machined from billet 6061 while the tires are machined from delrin. Special touches like silver cuts on the wheel and our laser etched logos gives your car that factory racing look while adding a few grams of rear weight to the bar for more rear traction. Each wheel weighs 8grams and uses the stock 22S wheelie wheel bearings.

TLR 22X-4 carbon fibre chassis

TLR have introduced this carbon fibre chassis for the 22X-4 4wd buggy. Weight is the best way to improve the performance of your 22X-4, making the buggy handle better, stay flatter, accelerate harder, brake quicker, land smoother and just go flat-out faster. The 22X-4 2.5mm aluminium chassis weighs around 115g, while the 22X-4 Carbon Chassis weights in at 75-77g – a weight savings of 38-40g. The massive 40g weight savings allows spec racers to run full-sized short batteries at near minimum weight. Unlike most off-road carbon fibre chassis that are cut from flat sheet carbon and require an aluminium front bulkhead for the chassis kick up, which effectively cancels out the weight savings, this carbon chassis is laid and includes the front chassis kick up in the carbon plate so no extra weight is added back on.

Exotek Racing 22S pro steering set & slipper eliminator

Exotek Racing have produced two new items for the Losi 22S drag racer. First up is this precision pro style steering set, designed with a beefier structure and engineered to have the most precision. This is down to the robust 7075 alloy design that incorporates an additional 4 bearings to connect the steering drag link, instead of the nylon cup, which now eliminates all flex and slop. The set also includes crush sleeves that goes between the bearings which help prolong the bearings life and maintains precise fit and operation of the rack. The second new item is their ultra-light direct spur gear mount which is a machined alloy unit that weighs only 3.6gr with the screws. Using a wider range of available spur gear sizes by Exotek, Kimbrough, etc., it allows for easy switching between a locked spur or the stock slipper as track conditions warrant.
