Willspeed RF74 billet aluminium tub chassis kit

Willspeed have introduced their new RF74 billet aluminium tub chassis kit for the Team Associated B74 series. Continuing on from their proven ultimate chassis design as used in their RF2 line of buggy conversions the RF74 brings some spice and style to the 4wd market. Machined from a single piece of T6 aircraft grade aluminium the RF74 design replaces the original multipart chassis with a sturdy tweak free integral platform which will allow you to get the suspension geometry working uninfluenced by not only removing tweak but unpredictable chassis flex. Comes supplied with their o-ring battery fastener and also inbuilt fan mount, the weight is comparable to stock multipart B74 chassis.

VP-Pro Gripz Evo 1/10th SC tire

Having recently released the Gripz Evo tire for 1/8th buggy, VP-Pro have now brought this thread pattern to Short Course. The mini square pin tyre works on nearly every track surface, from damp or muddy loam to dry and dusty hard-packed blue groove. The light weight tyre excels especially in qualifying when speed and agility is the main target with the small and evenly spaced lugs allowing to cut through dust, clean out in wet conditions, and skim over bumps and ruts without causing traction rolling like larger pin tyres. The tyre is available in M2, M3 & M4 rubber compounds and come pre mounted on black, white or yellow rims.

More new bodies from Pro-Line with the introduction of the 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor for the Traxxas Rustler and the Axis SC body.

This body completely transforms your Rustler 4×4 and allows you to add a custom paint job to your truck. The body comes pre-cut from the Pro-Line factory, so you just need to add paint along with the stock internal cage/body mounting system.

Pro-Line Axis body shells for MBX8, 8ight-X & RC8B3.2

As teased earlier in the week, Pro-Line have today released full details on the new Axis bodies for Mugen MBX8, TLR 8ight-X and Associated RC8B3.2. Designed with the latest in CAD technology, the Axis features a super low-slung design with sharp lines throughout giving it an unmistakable look on the track. The Axis is a cab-forward design that provides enhanced steering response while the small side fins balance out the rear of the car with ideal side-bite. The rear of the Axis body has the right amount of clearance for the nitro engine and fits the chassis and bulkhead shape of your race buggy perfectly. To run the Axis body on the EP version of the Mugen or Associated, the battery must be no taller than 39mm due to the low-slung nature of the Axis side pods.
