Reflex Racing RSD touring car spring sets

Coming from Reflex Racing and made for a range of touring cars including the Xray T4 are several shock spring sets. First up is the 20mm Progressive Spring set for the Xray T4. Progressive springs generate more traction than linear springs due to the dynamic of the compression of the spring. Early in the compression, when the spring needs to be soft to provide bite, they are softer and later in the roll, they stiffen up to provide more exit and on power traction and steering. The set comprises of three different rates of Yellow 13.0-14.0 lb/in, Gold 14.0-15.0 lb/in and Silver 15.0-16.0 lb/in.

Tamiya TRF102 1/10th formula chassis kit

Following a first official image some time ago Tamiya have now released more images of their forthcoming TRF1021 1/10th formula chassis kit. The successor of the TRF101 is based on a newly designed 2.5mm carbon fibre main chassis that incorporates platforms for the receiver and speed controller instead of utilising attachable plates. Also new are cutouts on both sides to allow for optimised torsional flex in order to gain more grip from rubber tyres. The most noticeable new feature on the car is the rear suspension though as it does away from the odd link-type design in favour of a somewhat old school T-bar setup that is meant to improve traction on low grip surfaces while also helping to smooth out the suspension action over bumpy parts of the track.
