JConcepts Fling King SCT tractor tyres

JConcepts have introduced their new Fling King SCT tractor tyres that are specifically designed to throw mud, dirt, gravel and grass just like the real thing. The giant-sized tyres are tall enough to dance through the deepest RC loam, however, its the tall lugs that separate them from the rest. Full-scale tyres like these are hand-cut to produce the most wicked looking tyres on the block. The JConcepts tyres are uniquely built to replicate a hand-cut set, however, deep tread remains to do the “mega” land damage the drivers and enthusiasts crave. One of the details about the SCT Fling Kings, they are designed for 3.0 x 2.2” standard SCT wheels, making them even more appealing. No details were spared on these mud runners, the V-type tread is replicated to a T and the top of the tread carries a slight recess adding a little touch of depth to the appearance. Off to the side, the tire lettering hits hard with retro style JConcepts lettering and Fling King logo. The super soft “green” compound which is recommended for dirt, grass and asphalt feels noticeably sticky and has expanding characteristics during flat out high-speed runs. The tyres include the Dirt-Tech closed cell inserts and they mount directly to Hustle, Hazard and Rulux 3.0 x 2.2” wheels which feature 12mm hex mounting capability for a vast assortment of SCT trucks on the market.

SWorkz S14-3 Dirt 1/10th 4WD electric buggy kit

SWorkz have introduced their new S14-3 Dirt 1/10th scale 4WD electric buggy kit developed especially for dirt tracks. The kit includes a centre gear differential for improved bump and lower traction handling with one of the unique features of the new buggy being the 5mm axle universal cross driveshafts that are specially designed and made from SWorkz’s 1/8th buggy steel material. For dirt off-road racing, the designers kept the original S14-3 C-hub steering system but moved the motor and battery positions further back for improved traction. With this new centre layout, the S14-3D has an improved overall balance. The front and rear suspension arms are made of strong composite nylon materials to cope with the rigours of off-road racing and the 7075 aluminium chassis with centre flex system provides more rear end grip. For dirt racing, the S14-3D also comes standard with a Pro-composite hard material side guard set. Also helping with overall traction are the new front and rear upper carbon fibre decks. The kit is rounded out by a refined shock system for optimised bump handling.
