Xray NT1 3S linear spring sets

Xray introduce new linear spring sets for the NT1 nitro sedan kit. Called 3S the springs are specially designed for the low profile shocks with the rear ones being 4mm shorter than the previous springs, meaning fronts and rears now sport the same length. They come selected, matched and laser-marked for equal dampening characteristics and easy identification. Beside the standard C=3.5 and C=4.0 springs also harder 4.5, 5.0 and 5.5 variants are available.

Vision Racing Associated buggy & truck options

Vision Racing introduce two new carbon fibre option parts for Team Associated 1/10th off-road vehicles like the B4, T4 and SC10. First up is a short battery brace that does away with the somewhat longer original part. It is machined from 2.5mm quasi-isotropic material for balanced longitudinal and torsional stiffness. Also new is a speed controller shelf to allow the ESC to be mounted right before the shock tower. The shelf is cut from 2.0mm material and attaches right to the bulkhead using the existing screws.

Hipex low noise 4-chamber EFRA homologated pipe

Hipex have released this low noise 4-chamber EFRA homologated pipe for .12 engines, the only pipe able to effectively get down to the 90 dB level.

The noise reduction is equal to 6 dB and together with the INS box the noise goes down even further without loss of performance. This pipe is a standard in Dutch Nationals and has been used with much success with many satisfied racers. Must be used with the dedicated manifold CL120036 that ensures the correct assembly on your 1/10 car.

VBC touring car & F1 options

VBC Racing introduce two new option parts for the Wildfire and FF Twelve touring cars as well as the Flash04 formula chassis in the form of hardened lightweight spool outdrives and aluminium spring retainers. Starting with the outdrives, they are designed for the aluminium spool body, come with a hardened surface and are machined to reduce weight and thus rotation mass for a quicker spool up and better acceleration. Also new are aluminium spring retainers for the shocks of the Wildfire, FF Twelve and Flash04 cars. The large diameter securely holds the spring while the grey anodised finish matches the remainder of the car’s parts.

Awesomatix A700 spur gear damper system

Awesomatix have released a new spur gear damper system for all A700 cars. The new system has damping from the o-rings which softens the reaction from the motor and makes the shaft transmission more similar to belt transmission when the throttle or the brake are applied. Lap times become more consistent and the car is easy to drive. In order to install this system you should increase the two current holes on the spur gear to 5mm. Awesomatix plans to produce its own line of spur gears with these holes in the future.
