Exotek RB6 direct spur mount & alloy wing buttons

Exotek have new optional parts available in the form of a direct spur mount for the Kyosho RB6 as well as alloy wing buttons for a range of 1/10th off-road buggies. Starting with the direct spur mount, the slipper eliminator hub fits all RB6 series buggies and truck including the RT6 and SC6 and it is best used in stock class and oval racing where a slipper is not necessarily needed. The lower weight makes for a cooler running motor and the design of the hub let drivers use all Kimbrough-standard spur gears. Due to the simple mounting swapping the hub for the slipper is an easy task when conditions call for it.

Overall the Blockbuster looks to be of quite an “edgy” design comparable to the gnarly Desert Militia bodyshell. Full information will become available very soon.

Sonic X.12 competition nitro engine

The new Sonic X.12 is the follow-up model of the successful V.12RS engine and designed for competition 1/10th on-road racing. The engine comes with a completely redesigned 3-port sleeve with “teardrop work” and made from a new material with less “pinch” compared to last year’s engine. Additionally the engine is equipped with a “knife edge” conrod and a balanced crankshaft with a red silicone insert to reduce inner turbulences and to optimise the fuel flow. Also new is the combustion chamber insert which has a similar design to the ones used in Sonic’s .21 engine. The X.12 is equipped with Swiss ball bearings, an ultra lightweight cooling head and a composite valve carburettor with a 5.4mm aluminium venturi.
