LRP ZZ.21C Ceramic competition engine

LRPZZ21C-1

The new LRP ZZ.21C Ceramic has been developed from scratch, profiting from the experience and input from their factory drivers, the result of which is a true rpm monster. Inside there are exclusively selected materials of the highest quality which together with an extremely precise manufacturing process results in a smooth power delivery. The new balanced crankshaft with carbon coating and silicone insert ensures minimum wear and low resistance. The newly designed engine head is extremely flat, flow optimized and lightweight meaning the centre of gravity is significantly lower compared to other competition engines. The end result is a motor with lots of power and super low fuel consumption.

Team Durango DEX210 2wd buggy

Team Durango DEX210 2wd buggy

The next generation of 2WD is here as Team Durango release details on the all new DEX210 buggy. Having stuck the prototype of this car in the final at last week’s World Championships in Finland, the production car is considerably different in terms of looks while retaining the same geometry and weight distribution of the car that gave Joern Neumann 5th place. The highlight of the car is the patented (pending) ability to set it up in 3 or 4 gear configuration in both rear and mid motor layout with the same gearbox. The cars backbone is the aluminium chassis plate, with moulded composite side plates, that can accept both stick and saddle pack battery configurations. Moulded composite shock towers, big bore shocks and aluminium FF and RR suspension blocks are just some of the other standard features.

JQ Products 41T front diff crown gear

JQ Products have released this smaller 41T front diff crown gear for THE Car. This gear makes the front tyres pull more when on power, in relation to the rear. Most drivers who have tried this gear, feel that it makes the car easier to drive, specially on power, as the rear end stays more planted. It also changes the feel of the steering and for most drivers makes it easier to hold their line in corners.
