Something a little different from Pro-Line is this 1966 Ford F-150 body for SC trucks with extended body mounts. Now you can have your very own custom ‘Hay Hauler’ with Pro-Line’s licensed body. The ’66 F-150 body comes with perfectly scaled details like the step-sides and huge fender flares that will bring you back to the good old days. You can even create your own version of the Class 8 Desert Truck that dominated the desert in the 1980’s.

The body is also wider to fit the wider chassis of the XB9’13. When used with earlier XB9 cars, this body will be a bit too wide at the base.

Reds Racing Three 2.0 clutch system

Reds Racing have announced a new update for their 3 shoes ‘one touch’ effortless clutch system, called Reds Three 2.0. The development of the new version has affected the clutch shoes 7075 T6 which have been completely redesigned in order to improve the engine performance at low RPM and increase clutch life. The new shoes are shorter, lighter and designed for engagement during the entire shoe stroke and are less sensitive to wear and as such life time is increased. The clutch engages at higher RPM range, resulting in more controllable power during acceleration, while still maintaining good handling and performance on jumps. The clutch can be adjusted thanks to the traditional combination of different springs and shoes. Three different types of springs are available, with a diameter of 0.9 – 1.0 – 1.1 mm, and two different types of shoes, the traditional aluminium 7075 shoes and the optional ones in carbon.
