US company Klinik RC has released a new 1:8 Buggy Body with their Scrub K8 designed with the objective of a creating a high downforce stable body with airborne speed scrubbing capabilities.  While on the ground the body has several pockets and spoilers to increase downforce, grip and stability, once airborne a quick and common tap of the brakes exposes 2 large side channels to grab air, slowing the car and directing it back to the ground.  Allowing you to carry more closing speed up and over jumps then scrub speed in the air and get the tyres back on the ground as soon as possible, driving the car, and decreasing lap times.  With buggy fitment including HB Racing D8/E8, Mugen MBX8/ECO, Associated RC8 B4.1, TLR 8X series, Kyosho MP11, Sparko F8/F8e, Agama, and Sworkz, each body is made in the USA using crystal clear polycarbonate.  Offered in standard .040” and lightweight .030” options, it comes with protective spray film for overspray protection, window masks and official Klinik RC logo decals.

Factory Team RC10B7 -4 Offset Alu Rear Hubs

Team Associated’s option parts & accessories brand Factory Team has introduced these new -4 offset aluminium rear hubs.   The hubs serve as a direct replacement for the plastic -4 rear hubs on the Team Associated RC10B7 1:10 2WD Buggy.  For use on buggy platform they need to be paired with the appropriate 81mm arms, 71mm CVA bones, and B74 CVA axle.  With the trucks you can simply install them because the appropriate CVA bones and axles come in the kit.  The benefits of the aluminium hubs are the added rigidity and weight difference.  The weight difference is a nice tuning option for those that want to change the amount of unsprung weight.  The hubs are offered in both blue or black in your choice of standard or HRC geometry.
