H-Speed TM4 carbon fibre chassis

H-Speed TM4 carbon fibre chassis

H-Speed, the brand of European front runner Hupo Hönigl introduce an optional carbon fibre main chassis plate for the Team C TM4 4WD buggy. Made from 2.5mm carbon material the chassis allows for more torsional flex which provides improved handling characteristics in nearly every track condition while giving added rear traction on power and improved corner entry steering at the same time. Using the chassis also scrubs around 90g of weight compared to the standard aluminium chassis. The chassis is a direct fit on the TM4 and does not require any modification.

Xtreme Racing Mini 8ight Truggy carbon fibre options

Made for the Team Losi Mini 8ight Truggy are three new carbon fibre option parts from Xtreme Racing in the form of a front and rear shock tower as well as mud guards for the rear A-arms. The shock towers come made from 3mm carbon fibre and replace the stock aluminium towers. They mimic the standard suspension geometry and offer several mounting positions for the shocks and camber links. The rear wheel guards are again made from high quality carbon fibre material and prevent excessive dirt build-up around the driveshafts and shocks when running Team Losi’s mini truck off-road.
