JConcepts ‘Summit Racing’ & ‘Angels’ BIGFOOT 4×4

Having become very involved in the RC monster truck scene in recent years thanks to owner Jason Ruona’s own personal love of all things BIGFOOT, JConcepts has released two new licensed bodies for the iconic vehicle that all started with a 1974 Ford F-250. One of the most used schemes in 2016, is the Summit Racing BIGFOOT 4×4 and it featured a seldom used style incorporating “scallop drops” to a base colour silver body. An eye catching design with a rather simple selection of elements gives the user the ability to race and bash with a limited amount of time invested. The second offering is the Angels BIGFOOT 4×4 from 2015 and it featured a slight change in design from those in the past. Angels is one of the only BIGFOOT trucks that uses a purple base paint scheme which shows up beautifully in the sun and in the spotlight. The actual graphics, show many flame licks in a bold yellow, orange, red, and white colour fading. Behind the flames, droplets of blue swirl and coast behind to form abstract tribal art, drips, and flames. Logo’s pop with block letter BIGFOOT font colorised to fit in with the Angels theme. Each package includes window mask, new 2010 generation Ford Raptor specific decal sheet and clear polycarbonate 2010 Ford Raptor body shell.

Avid AE/TLR Arm Mounts C Wider

Avid has released new Wider C Blocks for the Associated B6.4 & B74.2 and TLR’s 22 5.0 & 22X-4. They are a must-have if you are racing on high bite surfaces such as carpet or turf. The mount frees up the vehicle in the turns and when landing jumps sideways such as corner tabletops. Typically, to get to the low rear toe settings that you need on carpet, you must start narrowing the pills through the D Mount which is increasing side bite by decreasing your trackwidth. The C Arm mount prevents that from happening by widening the C pivot block, thus starting you at 1 deg of rear toe with centered pills on the C and D mount instead of 3.
