Following many tests and trials, GRP have launched their new M04 Grip tire for 1/8th buggies. The tire features a special design pin to guarantee high grip also under dirty and dusty conditions. This design guarantees a long tread life too, also on very high-wear tracks, keeping a high-level and steady grip. A very rounded profile makes it a very smooth and fast tire, but very easy to drive, while the internal carcass ribbing reduces tire expansion at high speed, leading to better stability of the model and driving precision. Available in 3 different compounds X-A-B, with a special orange or black molded insert.

The new version of the Multi-Diff from Xray, called the Multi-Diff T3 LiPo has 3 different settings, standard one-way, solid one-way and solid axle. The lightweight one-way outdrives are manufactured from Hudy Spring Steel and have a hex-slot machined at each end, into which a lightweight machined steel hex-style locking axle can be inserted into both outdrives to lock them together. This allows the creation of a solid one-way, meaning that both outdrives turn freely together as a one-way (at the same time), thus creating a solid one-way off-power. To create a full-time solid axle, a strong steel pin is inserted through aligned holes in the main aluminum body of the Multi-Diff and the steel locking axle. This locks the outdrives completely, creating a full-time solid axle. Includes factory-pressed (non-replaceable) high-quality German one-way bearings, hand-ground for maximum running precision and strength.
