Twister Tires ends deal with ATS

Contrary to Twister Tires’ previous announcement, Kevin Hutchinson and DJ Apolaro have now stated that they will not in fact carry Twister/ATS tires any longer. Here is what they had to say about the changes of plan:

After 2.7 years of helping build the ATS/Twister tire brand’s reputation in the Western Hemisphere, we want to say thanks to our customers and sorry for the recent delays. We are in the process of introducing a new tire line, spearheaded by Piero Torregiani (former head man with ATS). Our new product is currently being developed to ensure our customers get an even better product than before, along with the same great customer service. Please bear with us during these next few months and be assured you won’t be disappointed.

Exotek Racing 416XL chassis

Exotek Racing have introduced the Exotek 416XL, a high performance multi adjustment LiPo chassis that represents uncompromised balanced LiPo performance. With the unique CNC manufactured stainless steel weights your LiPo battery can be positioned to have equal left and right balance within grams without the need to add lead weight and without raising the battery up higher. The 2mm thick 416XL chassis is designed and tested to equalize lateral flex. No more inconsistent flex problems caused by 6 large battery cut outs like in the stock chassis. The net result is much more predictable handling. A special included 3mm thick servo mount wing securely mounts your servo. Its raised design maintains the narrow chassis profile to prevent chassis scrub in corners.
