Ultimate Racing engines for Batlle

Having made the move to Sworkz, for whom he will not only race but also fill the role of team manager, Robert Batlle’s 1:8 Offroad program will be powered by engines from Ultimate Racing for 2025.  The former World Champion has a longtime relationship with Ultimate Racing having been supported heavily by the Spanish brand’s owners Modelix Racing during his early European Championship reign.  Having run Corsatec engines as part of his stint with Mayako, on his new engine deal Batlle posted, ‘We go back to the origins, the one of things that are to come, you will love them. Back to the beginning, so excited about all news coming soon.’  Already supported by Modelix’s fuel brand Nitrolux, Batlle will continue to use this with further collaboration to be announced.

Ultimate Racing MXR Ceramic 3 Transfer .21 Offroad

Spanish based brand Ultimate Racing has launched their new MXR Ceramic 3 Transfer .21 Offroad Competition Engine.  Like its predecessor the MXS, this engine is manufactured by the prestigious Japanese brand O.S. Engines and in this case based on their square stroke Speed B21 engine.  Apart from the modifications that the MXS already had, such as the crankshaft and back plate, the sleeve of the MXR has been modified, modifying the ports to be able to vary the inlet and exhaust timing.  The inner head has also been modified and includes the innovative FlowMax venturi to improve performance, more specifically, to achieve greater power without compromising fuel consumption. This engine provides a really good power band with a ton of usable power.  It has a smooth bottom end which worked well on the bumpy track and then has a lot of mid-range pop and feel to it.  This engine is also available as Team Edition (broken in) and Combo with both, the 2141 and the 2142 pipes.

Ultimate Racing Alu Steering Ball Link Protector

Spanish company Modelix Racing, through its Ultimate Racing brand, has released this Aluminium Steering Ball Link Protector.  Machined from T6-7075 aluminium and anodised in dark grey if you are tired of having to change steering ball links frequently this is for you.  Designed to fit the ball link to prevent the rims from rubbing when turning the wheels and weakening the ball link.  In terms of mounting no glue is required.  Place the protectors as far as possible inside the ball joints and thread the tie rod.  As the tie rod is threaded, the plastic of the ball joint expands, locking the protector in place.
