R1 Wurks B7 Ultra-Light Pro Slipper Eliminator System

R1 Wurks has released its latest iteration of their slipper eliminator system for the Team Associated B7 platform. The focus of the Ultra-Lightweight Pro Slipper Eliminator System is on significant weight reduction, particularly in areas affecting rotational inertia, resulting in faster drivetrain spool-up, improved acceleration, and enhanced overall efficiency. This was achieved by eliminating traditional gear-mounting screws and replacing them with a single lightweight aluminium nut, which not only reduces rotational mass but also ensures a secure, warp-free gear mount. The Ultra lightweight comes in at just 3.4 grams (excluding gear weight) and comes with lightweight R1 Wurks titanium top shaft screw, an aluminum Lock nut, and is compatible with most aftermarket gears, including Kimbrough (gear not included). The system comes complete with its own 8mm wrench.

Mugen Seiki MSB1 Option Parts

New from Mugen Seiki are a number of option parts for its MSB1 1:10 2WD Buggy. The release includes a new -4mm Chassis, which as the title suggests is shorter, with the 4mm removed from behind the battery of the standard chassis. This is said to improve turning ability on both carpet or dirt high-grip surfaces. Also in the release are universal joint rear driveshafts which allow the suspension move more smoothly compare to the kit standard CVA drive shafts. The standard 67mm CVA bones have also been updated. While the standard may come out of the outdrive depending on the position of the inner hinge pin, the new 68mm CVA helps expand the range of suspension setup. Additionally the Japanese manufacturer has added a range of new 2.5mm shock pistons.
