FTW Racing Components launched its line of carbon fibre racing components by introducing three upgrade kits for the Losi’s popular Ten-SCTE 4WD short course platform, a cooling fan kit, a shock tower kit and an Ackerman rack kit. FTW’s cooling fan kit includes a carbon fibre bracket which replaces the center diff brace and suspends a massive 40mm cooling fan over the motor can. The kit can lower motor temps by up to 40 degrees versus the same setup with no fan, producing side effects like increased power, longer run times and enhanced longevity. It includes a JST connector on the fan wire lead and all necessary hardware for installation.

Following the Hi-Flow Short Course body shell, JConcepts introduce another new product during this week’s 2011 ROAR Electric Off-Road Nationals. The Hazard 12mm hex wheel for Associated SC10 and SC10 4×4 kits features a 10 spoke design, bead-lock appearance and centre lug nut detail. The Hazard will make an immediate impact on the performance of the SC10 trucks by widening the stance of the truck by 6mm in overall width. The increased width will maximise the SC10 and bring it up to the ROAR maximum legal limits in dimensional width. The wheels should be available soon.

Pro-Line introduce a front inboard hub set for Losi’s XXX-SCT and XXX-SCB Short Course kits. Replacing the front hubs and axles, it converts the assembly into a floating 12mm hex, allowing to run Pro-Line’s ProTrac wheels or any other zero offset 12mm hex wheel on the front of the Losi SC truck or buggy. The front inboard hub kit also allows to run Losi XXX-SCT/SCB rear offset wheels in the front of the truck or buggy but this will make the front about 0.1” wider than stock, which is still within ROAR legal width requirements.
