Serpent have released this carbon filler plate for use with their new LCG chassis plate that we showed you a while ago. The plate comes with the fastening material to fix it to the chassis and is suitable for mounting in the front of both the SPP chassis as a spare and the latest LCG machined chassis as an optional. What it does is, when in place it stiffens up the front of the chassis, which of course affects the cars handling dramatically.

Sirio have released their new power clutch set that is suitable for use with the Xray NT1 and the Kyosho RRR range of 1/10th scale cars. The bell housing (above) is sold as part of the set and features cooling fins that allow the temperature of the clutch to stay low without the removal of material which could compromise strength, and reduce clutch shoe contact area. The bell housing is also available seperately and doesn’t come supplied with pinion gears, those that come with the Xray and Kyosho will fit.
