Factory Team B6.1 Carbon Laydown Gearbox and Chassis Braces

New from Factory Team is this RC10B6.1 Carbon Laydown Gearbox and Chassis Braces set. The carbon material offered by Factory Team has become a popular upgrade for many parts across the Team Associated line of race cars. Adding rigidity to suspension components and limiting chassis flex is a great tuning option for race cars. The carbon laydown gearbox and chassis braces reduce the flex in the rear of the chassis, resulting in a more consistent and precise feel on track. This set is a direct replacement for the original kit parts.

JConcepts Drop Step rear & Pin Swag 4WD front tyres

JConcepts has added two new additions to its extensive 1:10 Buggy tyre range, the Drop Step 2.2″ rear tire and the Pin Swag, 2.2″ 4WD front tyre. The Drop Step is a step pin type tyre but with large hexagon shaped base features doubled up and offset to create more edges and surfaces to bite and grip in deep conditions. Long pins extend off the hex designs and reach into the depths of racing surfaces. The drafted pin angle has a stout base and increases flexibility near the peak for delicate bite. Designed in the industry standard 2.2” bead mounting size, the Drop Step is very versatile and has shown to work in many artificial conditions. The Pin Swag tire combines the outer lugs of a JConcepts Swagger front tire with the dense arrangement of specialty pins. Now optimised as a 4WD front tyre, the pins themselves are round and crisp to the top where they climax to a point. Near the sidewall, the Swag enters with a smooth transition and drops off to a ledge giving steering control. The Swag is split down the centre to give a little individual control to contort to surfaces. In between, a stagger section with angular front is placed just behind a vertical rib to complete the design. The tight spacing of the Pin and Swag bite together and minimise wear across the carcass.

Antix by LRP Oils

LRP has released a new range of nitro racing specific oils under the branding Antix by LRP. Coming in a 60ml bottle, Hi-Flow Air Filter Oil will ensure you have a well oiled air filter, essential for the best possible engine protection and long engine life. The air filter oil achieves this through its high quality ingredients and the blue colouring makes checking the complete air filter lubrication especially easy. ANTIX by LRP After-Run Oil prevents oxidation of internal engine parts caused by the inevitable fuel and exhaust residues inside the engine after running, resulting in reduced performance and shortened engine life. Completing the initial range of oils is the 25ml bottle of Ball Bearing Oil 2 which is a new improved formulation of their previous high-quality, low-viscosity light-running oil.

Leadfinger Racing A2 Tactic S14-4C bodyshell

American offroad bodyshell manufacturer Leadfinger Racing has added to their A2 Tactic line up with the aftermarket body specifically designed to fit the Sworkz S14-4C (Carpet Edition) 1:10 4WD buggy. Following the recent release of the new 4wd buggy, customers immediately requested a body from Leadfinger that could offer up great looks and unmatched performance. The new A2 Tactic body is a super low-profile design that is built for speed. The perfectly raked windshield contours seamlessly to the roof line that includes an optional vent to help to keep electronics cooler. Finished off with a rear fin and spoiler, this combination delivers the perfect balance for stability and performance. There is no more concern for front wings that break or fall off during hard crashes. This wing securely mounts onto the front shock tower using both bulkhead screws. Also included are two of our newest and most popular ‘Sniper Medium Weight Turf Wings.’ These wings are molded from a thicker material that will provide lasting performance for a much longer period.
