Yokomo have introduced their new Racing Performer 6000mAh LCG LiPo battery pack. Made from high-quality 70C/140C cells the battery offers low internal resistance and thus maximum voltage and punch, making it ideal for both Modified and Stock racing classes. On top of this does the low centre of gravity design make for less chassis rolling in corners which can result in faster lap times.

RPM have introduced two front bumpers for the Team Associated B6 buggies. First up is a mini bumper that replaces the stock hinge pin retainer. It provides roughly 25mm of forward extension and nearly 49mm of width to help protect the front end of the vehicle. That means direct frontal impacts won’t transfer 100 percent of that damaging impact energy into the front bulkhead, chassis or shock tower. The mini bumper weighs in at a mere 7.5g and it is moulded from RPM’s own nylon mix.
