Updated Pro-Line BullDog body shells

Available soon from Pro-Line Racing are several new or updated BullDog design body shells for popular 1/8th and 1/10th scale buggies and trucks. Completely new is the High Downforce BullDog line for the Team Associated RC8.2 and the Hot Bodies D812. The bodies are designed to increase high speed stability and also feature improved rear end downforce due to a spoiler design that guides more air towards the rear wing. Large roof air channels give the bodies a distinctive look. Other new or updated BullDog bodies are available for the TLR 8eight-E 2.0 buggy, the Team Associated B4.2 and T4.2 as well as the TLR 22. In addition to the 1/10th bodies Pro-Line also introduce the 7″ wide Stabilizer rear wing. The wing is designed to maximise rear downforce and comes in sets of two.

Exotek Evo5 Pro chassis conversion

Exotek Racing introduce a limited edition conversion kit for the Tamiya Evo5 and Evo5 MS chassis. The kit is specially designed for the use with stock motors and has an opening in the top plate to work correctly with just smaller spur gears and large pinions used in 13.5T to 21.5T type blinky classes. Because of this the largest spur gear that can be used must be 34mm diameter or smaller. Larger spur gears are usable by adding shims under the top plate to raise it up. The kit brings the somewhat older Evo5 to latest 2013 specs with inclusion of an ultra narrow 84mm chassis made from 2mm carbon fibre. Also included is a flex top plate for rubber tire racing, a LiPo cradle system with adjustable sliding holders, tapeless yet tweak free LiPo locking tabs and a hanging low-profile servo mount to reduce chassis scrub. The top plate is drilled to accept Evo5 and Evo5 MS motor mounts. The kit is designed for the experienced racer and limited to 60 pieces world wide.
