With the Rally Game class gaining popularity especially during the cold months of the year, RB decided to develop a specific engine for the job. The new Xtrem Rally features the latest technology which provides efficient power at low and high RPM. Inside there is a 7 ports sleeve with MES, a hardened machined lightweight piston and a 14.5 turbo crankshaft, that gives even more power to this engine.

Capricorn have released a number of new items for their 1/8th and 1/10th cars. First up is the new double reverse clutch system for their 1/10th car, which also works on the NT1 and Velox V10. The new clutch is available in red or black version and helps increase the power of the engine when it engages while maintaining the same top speed. An aluminium clutch bell reduces the weight by 70% over the steel version for more acceleration. New for both classes is an updated damper system with quadra o-ring and improved bottom cup for smoother shock shaft action as well as easier assembly. Finally for the C801 is a new front carbon shock tower with a different profile which helps increase steering in the entry of the corner.
