JConcepts TLR 8ight 3.0 Silencer body

New from JConcepts comes the Silencer body shell for the TLR 8ight 3.0 buggy. Designed for high-speed tracks, the body features a narrowed, Finnisher stance cockpit that allows better fuel tank access and offers increased flow around the engine’ heatsink. A deep recess around the heat-sink area with dual channelling out the rear provides air escape along with rear-end stability. The body’s side-pods have a clipped rear-end, narrowing the rear by angling just in front of the rear tyres. The Silencer is capped off with a cockpit “shark fin” for more high-speed tracking stability and increased roof stiffness. As usual the body comes clear, including window masks and a decal sheet.

RB One R drivetrain and suspension options

RB have introduced new optional parts for their RB One line of buggies in the form of clutch bells, a new main gear and a thicker anti-roll bar wire. Starting with the clutch bells, the parts are of a vented design and now come in two new sizes, 13T and 14T. They are CNC-machined, lightweight and sport size markings for easy identification. In addition to the clutch bells RB also have a new lightweight 50T main gear available. Again CNC-machined and of a lightweight design, the part reduces the rotating mass of the drivetrain for quicker spool-up and acceleration while offering additional gearing possibilities. Last but not least comes the super thick 2.9mm front anti-roll bar wire. Designed for very high grip surfaces the thickest of RB’s swaybar wires keeps the front end planted on astro or carpet tracks. All parts are designed to fit both the RB One and RB One R.

All parts are a direct replacement for the stock plastic composite items.

TLR 8ight-E 3.0 8th electric buggy

Following on from the success of the TLR 8ight 3.0 buggy, the new TLR 8ight-E 3.0 has been developed to meet the specific requirements of the electric 1/8 buggy racer and features many specific design cues that further optimise the 8ight platform and hone it for the specific rigours of electric racing. The 4mm 7075-T6 hard anodised chassis has been optimised for equal lateral flex characteristics and facilitates the lowest possible mounting of the motor and cells thus lowering the overall centre of gravity to improve handling and direction change. Motor and cell placement now resembles the layout used on the SCTE 2.0 SC truck. Other features included in the new kit are 16mm shock absorbers, aluminium suspension pivots and redesigned shock towers with optimised camber link and shock mounting positions. The kit is topped off by a new aero package that makes use of the experience gained with the 8ight 3.0 nitro buggy and includes a wing with wickerbill option and a new aggressively styled body shell with large shark fin.
