1up Racing Forged Carbon Fibre Pit Board

1up Racing has released this Forged Carbon Fibre Pit Board. At 390mm x 490mm it is the perfect size to work on just about everything with Ryan Cavalieri loving it for his 1:8 Buggies and Truggies. It’s perfect for Joe Pillars’ 1:10 Buggies and Randy Caster’s Touring Cars. At 5mm thick the Forged Carbon Fibre Pit Board is rigid and won’t sag or conform to uneven surfaces even with heavy cars. It features rounded corners and is finished with chamfers on top & bottom so there are no sharp edges and is topped off with a bright white 1up logo. Forged Carbon Fibre sheets typically have a lot of surface variations but 1up were able to identify the source of the issue and worked hard with their carbon fibre professionals to make 1up Pit Boards as flat as possible. Our production boards are the result of over a year and a half of testing multiple samples and while the surface may still show some variations, they are small and won’t affect getting a properly set up car. The 1up Racing Forged Carbon Fiber Pit Board is as much a status symbol as it is a pit board, and it’s only available at Pick1up.com.

JConcepts ‘Racer’ & ‘Nation’ BIGFOOT bodies

JConcepts continues its release of new officially licensed bodies for the iconic BIGFOOT monster truck with the addition of the ‘Racer’ and the ‘Nation’. One of the more famous schemes produced in the early 2000’s is BIGFOOT Nation, and it featured a radical departure in design from those in the past. The all-one-color design appeared in many shows around the country and always performed well in front of spectators. The key part of the design, less is more, a simple colour palette combined with decals give fans a BIGFOOT that would thrive in popular motorcycle culture. With BIGFOOT Racer, most fans recognise the Racer Stripe scheme as the moment BIGFOOT upped the ante in design, safety, and competition handling. The addition of the yellow and red stripes said it all back in 1990, and it seems, every incarnation of The Original Monster Truck is compared to the Racer Stripe. During the 2015 racing season, top driver Dan Runte was topped off with the Racer scheme for one of the largest events of the year at Charlotte Motor Speedway at the Back-to-School Monster Truck Bash.

EssexCarpetClash5 Round1 – Report

EssexCarpetClash returned the first weekend of October for their fifth year championship in the southern region of England. This year, there were a couple of changes compared to previous years, the main being a limit to the number of rear sets of tyres used for the day. A maximum of 2 sets, but the second set (if you chose to use them) could only be used in the finals. Eleven car heats and finals were the other addition, but this was accompanied by a larger track and in turn a longer lap time giving everyone space on the track. As in the past, it was the best 2 qualifying runs from 4 (round by round qualifying) to count for the final grid positions. Ed Kerry, (now running a Serpent) edged the pole position slot from Harley Eldridge (Xray) who were both joint on points, only separated on countback by less than 2 tenths of a second. 3rd on the grid would be last year’s champion Klye Moon (Willspeed).
