Blaze Racing CRC 1/12th scale Quad-link conversion

Coming from Blaze Racing is the Quad-link conversion for CRC 1/12th scale pan cars. Taking the read pod design of the larger Pro10 cars, the plug and play conversion uses two addition, smaller, links to replace the typical pivot ball. The construction is bind-free and allows to fine-tune the rear suspension geometry – something less common in 1/12th scale racing. In addition it optimises the rear roll centre for increased rear traction without sacrificing front end grip. The conversion consists of 7075 aluminium components and 3mm carbon parts, steel ball studs and composite links and it is usable on cars such as the CRC CK25.

JConcepts Tribute wheel mock beadlock rings

JConcepts have introduced their new mock beadlock rings for the Tribute monster truck wheels. The injection moulded, 4-piece set includes details found on today’s monster trucks and can be easily adapted to existing JConcepts Tribute wheels at a low-cost. The simple part can be pressed on the outside, inner diameter shape of the wheel and left for visual purposes or light racing and track running. Racers who plan to perform heavy running, freestyle or bashing might want to opt for some flexible, adhesive goo for attachment and a more secure fit. The great part about the Tribute mock beadlocks, whether you press it in or use adhesive goo, the driver can always remove them, go for another colour combo or clean them separately from the tyre and wheel assembly. The rings are available in a variety of colours including blue, black, white, pink, green, orange, red, and silver.

Picco Monza & Blast .21 engines

Picco from Italy have introduced their new Monza .21 Team on-road and Blast .21 Team off-road engines. Starting with the on-road engine, 3.5cc power plant features a newly designed crankcase that improves internal gas flow and produces a higher performance over the whole RPM range.

The 7-port cylinder and piston is made using special alloys to optimise lifespan and reliability of the unit. Paired with the long stroke design the Monza provides great bottom end power to suit demanding high grip on-road tracks. The super-aligned knife edged aerodynamic connecting rod is also made with a special aluminium alloy. The carburettor sports the latest double bottom-end adjustment for fine-tuning.
