The on road fuel is mainly composed of castor oil combined with synthetic oil. The latest generation of additives can significantly reduce the friction of engine parts and viscosity in order to optimize fuel consumption and improve reliability at high pressure and temperature. Following the big demand from all the drivers around the world, RB have decided to develop a special pre run fuel, especially adapted for the first rounds of your brand new engine. During the break in period, the internal parts of the engine suffer from friction due to the very precise tolerances of micro engine parts. Because the engine is brand new, it has to be adjusted very rich and as a result is always low in temperature. This new RB break in fuel include special oils and additives making the lubrication of the engine better at lower temperature. After 2 liters of the RB pre run fuel, your engine will be in perfect condition to be used with normal fuel and will last longer.

Xray XB808 adjustable rear hub carrier

Xray have released this aluminum XB808 adjustable rear hub carrier. CNC-machined from premium lightweight Swiss 7075 T6 aluminium, hardcoated for extra durability and long life, it offers new and unique possibility to adjust the roll-center in 1:8 off road cars. The upright has 3 holes where the upper linkage can be mounted by aluminum ball with thread, while aluminium shims can be used for increasing or decreasing angle of roll center. Smart Xray engineering includes the use of composite bushings to secure ball-bearings in both sides of the hub carrier, allowing perfect fitment and smooth operation to ultimately impart much higher lifespan compared to bearings installed directly into aluminium hub carriers. Additional roll center adjustments are possible through the use of composite roll center bushings which can be inserted in two different orientation positions for the pivot pin. Holes in the upper position give +2mm upper roll center, while holes in the lower position are equal to the standard composite roll center position.
