We have featured some pretty cool things from RCID Custom and Upgrade RC before and they all did a great job of making your stuff stand out and be unique, but this latest product from RCID really takes personalisation to the another level. If you have run out of things to put your mark on, then you have to get these transponder decals that are designed to fit onto your AMB personal transponder. You can choose from a number of designs and different options and of course you specify your unique AMB ID number to have it printed on it too. No longer will you have your transponder hidden away in some obscure place on your car.

Xtreme Racing have released this 4mm thick carbon fibre rear shock tower for the Mugen MBX5R. With the abuse that these parts experience on the track it is important that they can stand up to the punishment and these ones look like they could. The shock tower is a direct replacement but also contains an extra row of shock mounting holes for further adjustment. Xtreme Racing have also released carbon shock towers for the MBX5T too.

This is a neat little thing from Novak, its a 4 cell transponder voltage booster which basically ensures that your 4 cell powered vehicle always has enough power for the transponder because after all theres no point in having power to continue your race if your laps aren’t being counted. Available in January 2007.
The module connects between the vehicle’s transponder and the receiver, and boosts voltage to the transponder for consistent lap counting—even when the battery pack is dumped.
