RT Inferno MP9 Quick-change Motor blocks

RT Inferno MP9 Quick-change Motor blocks

New from Reckward Tuning are these quick change engine mounts for the Kyosho Inferno MP9. Similar to other versions previously available, they allow the removal and mounting of the engine without the need to re-align the gear mesh due to the 2 piece design. The base mounts are mounted to the chassis and the top blocks, which are attached to the engine, can be removed separately. When re mounting the engine, guide pins ensure that the engine is perfectly aligned with the base mounts each time.

Vita Tuning MBX-6 Active Caster system

Vita Tuning have produced their Active Caster system for the Mugen MBX-6. Made from machined aluminium, this 2 piece system allows the racer to adjust the original upper wishbone angle by +3 or +6 degrees. Doing this means that the car can be stable at high speeds but give steering when needed at slow speeds, making the car less nervous and easier to drive.
