RC Maker SP1 ‘Hara Edition’

Having had the opportunity to work with legend of the sport Atsushi Hara at the iconic TITC earlier this year, Electric Touring Car manufacturer RC Maker has announced a limited production ‘Hara Edition’ of their SP1.  Celebrating the coming together of Hara and RC Maker, the Australian manufacturer decided to make this incredibly limited edition kit in Hara’s signature purple colour.  Putting a lot of effort into the details of this kit, it gives you something to admire on the shelf, or race on the track.  It includes a number of option parts used by Hara to get the kit to the latest race spec, as well as a complete shock spring and anti-roll bar set.  The very limited edition consists of only 100 kits!  All included aluminium chassis are laser engraved with chassis numbers to prove authenticity.

Gruber takes second ENS win of 2025

Capricorn’s Toni Gruber has claimed his second win of the 2025 Euro Nitro Series, the German taking the Round 3 victory at Apeldoorn in the Netherlands ahead of Mugen Seiki’s Simon Kirzbuch.  Winner of the season opener at Ettlingen in Germany, Gruber would secure the TQ by topping the opening 3 of the 4 rounds of qualifying.  Posting a TQ run in the final round, reigning Champion Kurzbuch, who won the previous round at Aigen in Austria, would qualify second on the grid ahead of Infinity’s Teemu Leino and ARC’s Silvio Hachler.  Despite tricky weather conditions for finals day, the dry 45-minute Main would see Gruber dominate to win by almost 2-laps from Kurzbuch despite the Swiss driver setting the fastest lap.  The big moment of the race would come as it approached the final minute, as Leino’s car had a problem and came to a halt, this allowing Hachler to complete the podium.  In 1:10 Nitro Touring Car, Poland’s Jakub Rozycki continued to rule the season as he made it three wins in a row finishing 2-laps clear of defending champion Melvin Diekmann and Tim Benson.
