SWorkz high density gear ratio system

SWorkz continues to design new parts to improve the speed of your car, the latest result of which is the high density gear ratio system. Compared to the original 1.0 pitch spur gears, the 0.8 pitch gear ratio gives you more feedback and feeling. The acceleration change is significantly quicker, yet smoother and more range is given from lower torque to higher speeds. 2 clutch bell sizes (16/17T) are available as well as different centre spur gears (57/58/59/60). Your original S35-4 nitro kit comes with 47/13T, so you can start by trying the new 58/16T gears, while with truggy you should use 59/16T or 60/16T.

JConcepts Mini Aero car stand

JConcepts begins the new year with fresh pit-ware for the mini vehicle racing scene. The Aero car-stand in matte black material stands out in any pit area and supports the vehicle with its unique footing and highly chiseled shape. A rail-like border contains the shape while a deep draw along the sides creates a bold surface for included decal or custom wrap. A ‘V’ step-down feature was added to the ends which brings the styling back down to earth while the void creates added space below the vehicle. The design team focused on several aspects and the mini size was of utmost importance. A lower stance was built into the design and the smaller footprint occupies minimal space in the pits. Top load pockets were incorporated as catch-all compartments for body clips, wheel nuts or any small items that are routinely changed during a race event. Triangle cushion pads are positioned on the top to provide support all the way to the edges on mini platform vehicles to prevent slippage. JConcepts has included a decal wrap for maximum exposure and presence that has a new ‘forward pursuit” graphical theme.
