Ryan Maker announces new Inov8 brand

Ryan Maker, who having started out with producing option parts and accessories before building RC Maker in to a full fledged electric touring car manufacturer, has announced a new brand for the parts side of the business which is called Inov8.  With RC Maker focusing its efforts as a car manufacturer, the Australian is to now offer all of the well known options parts he deigns and produces for all brands of cars under the new Inov8 brand.  Making the announcement Maker posted, ‘As most of you know, for most of it’s life so far, RC MAKER was an accessories and option parts brand.  Since the release of the SP1 and SP1-F, we have only really been able to focus on the cars and their development which has put a massive hold on the accessories and option parts side of the brand.  It’s crazy to think its been 7 years already since the beginning of RC MAKER, and obviously the direction of the business has changed substantially since I achieved my dream of designing and producing my own car…….

CFG Racing Mi9 Spring Steel & Alu Chassis

Swiss based CFG Racing has launched a new chassis line-up for Schumacher’s newly crowned European Champion Mi9 1:10 Electric Touring Car.  First of the chassis is 1.2mm Spring Steel option made in Switzerland which brings together Swiss CNC precision and on-track performance delivering more grip, more stability, and more consistency.  It also keeps tyre temperatures alive with today’s temperature-sensitive compounds, making warm-up easier and mid-corner grip stronger.  CFG Racing say the chassis is best for low to very high grip asphalt and medium to high grip carpet tracks.  Also offering a 1.5mm 7075 Aluminium Chassis, this is for racers chasing lower CG and progressive flex.  Giving a sharper steering, smoother transitions, and a planted, neutral feel this especially works weak when the car needs to rotate but stay calm mid-corner.  On asphalt and carpet this works best on low to medium-high grip.

Orlowski finally adds European TC title to tally

Schumacher’s Michal Orlowski has finally added the EFRA 1:10 Electric Touring European Championship title to his CV, the Pole taking the 2025 title ahead of outgoing Champion Marc Rheinard in the Netherlands.  With Bruno Coelho securing the TQ with the new Infinity IF14 Speciale ahead of Orlowski and Rheinard, A1 would see a dramatic start to finals day at the RACO2000 track.  On the opening lap Orlowski made a mistake giving Coelho some breathing space but then on Lap 2 the World Champion rolled handing the Awesomatix of Rheinard the lead which the German held to the end to win ahead of Ronald Volker’s Mugen Seiki with Orlowski P3 ahead of Coelho.  Switching from a white body to full race paint for A2, the switch wasn’t to bring Coelho any better luck for A2 as again Lap 2 would be his downfall as he spun out of the lead ahead of Orlowski.  With Rheinard then making a mistake, Orlowski would cruise to the win ahead of Volker and Xray’s Alexander Hagberg as Rheinard registered a P5 and Coelho a DNF.  With Coelho out of title contention, the focus of A3 was on if Rheinard could retain his title or if Orlowski could lay claim to it for the very first time.  With Rheinard needing to finish second and ahead of Orlowski, as Coelho led out front the race would see the Top 7 finish as they started and with his A2 win and P3 in A1 it was Orlowski’s title.  With Rheinard finishing runner-up, the podium would be completed by 7-time Champion Volker with Coelho ending up fourth.  In Stock the race would also see the crowning of a brand new Champion as Top Qualifier Adam Iszay converted with wins in A1 & 3 to win the title for Xray ahead of former Champions Olivier Bultynck, who won A2, and Max Mächler.  In FWD and Formula it was to be home wins for Robin Van Gog and Fenix driver Jitse Miedema.
