Featuring a 4mm wrench and a 2mm steel pin, the tool allows for easy adjustment of 4mm camber and toe turnbuckles with the 2mm pin making camber adjustment of captured turnbuckles, as found on the front suspension of many, mostly 1/8th scale on-road cars, a lot more convenient. The wrench sports a black surface treatment for looks and wear and it comes laser-engraved for easy identification.
Mon-Tech Racing from Italy have introduced their all-new YSOT high-downforce body shell for 190mm touring cars. Developed over the recent months to fulfil the need of racers for even greater performances in both modified and stock racing classes, the body offers exceptional overall balance, allows for high cornering speeds and a very planted driving feeling, making it ideal for “green” carpet or very low traction conditions. Large wheel arches allow the driver to shift the body forth and back a couple of millimetres in order to fine-tune overall steering and rear balance. The YSOT is available as standard thickness body, weighing in at 78g, while the thinner La Leggera variant weighs in at only 62g. The EFRA approved body includes window masks and a decal sheet and it will hit stores very soon.
