RDRP B6 aluminium rear gearbox brace

Revolution Design Racing Products have added another new Team Associated B6-related option part to their growing portfolio in the form of the new aluminium rear gearbox brace. The part adds much needed precision and durability to the rear section of Team Associated’s 6th generation 2WD vehicles. Replacing the standard composite part with an ultra-precise and more durable alloy part helps to get that peace of mind when the going gets tough on the track. Both the gearbox and anti-roll bar mounting threads will not strip as easily as the original composite material does, while the rigid construction adds additional strength to the rear section of the vehicle. Available in black or blue anodising and coming with silver edge details the gearbox brace also looks the part. The part fits both the B6 and B6D kits.

Xpress tease Execute XQ1 touring car

Xpress have released a first teaser image of their forthcoming all-new 1/10th 4WD electric touring car kit. An iconic brand back in the 1990’s and 2000’s, Xpress have recently made the step back into the market with a range of M-sized cars and are now on the verge of presenting their first competition kit in years. The teaser gives a first taste of what to expect with the company seemingly having taken a somewhat different design approach on details such as the bulkheads, anti-roll bar and suspension mounts. As all parts look pretty much production ready so we expect the kit to hit the market shortly.
