VBC Racng FF18 Revival 2026 Kit

A manufacturer that has been quite of late, VBC Racing has announced its FF18 Revival 2026 kit which is a tribute to the original FF18, one of the Hong Kong company’s most celebrated front-wheel-drive 1:10-scale touring car platforms. VBC say this this limited release exists because loyal fans and veteran club racers have long clamoured for a return of the FF18’s unmistakable driving character—light, agile, and unforgivingly fast on asphalt tracks. After VBC’s strong comeback, they are drawing directly from their existing original stock parts to make this authentic revival possible at an accessible USD $199 price point, repackaged for modern appeal and enriched with select factory upgrades like the new aluminium front C-hub. It’s not a ground-up redesign but a deliberate homage: preserving the hands-on build experience that defined the era, while addressing real-world racer feedback for enhanced high-speed stability. This release bridges VBC’s storied past with today’s FWD scene, offering collectors a genuine piece of history and active racers a platform ready to dominate local layouts without breaking the bank.

Boost RC TC10/3 Conversion Kit

Italian brand Boost RC has released this Internal Shock Conversion Kit for the Axon TC10/3 Electric Touring Car. This complete conversion system has been developed to relocate the dampers from the traditional external position to a fully internal layout, improving mass centralisation and overall driving performance. The result is a car that feels more predictable, more stable, and noticeably quicker through mid-corner, while remaining easy to drive at the limit. The kit is compatible with both the original Axon dampers and the optional short shock set (High Big Bore Shock Conversion), allowing flexibility depending on the driver’s setup preferences. All suspension arms are manufactured from 3mm carbon fibre, while the upper mounts are produced from high-strength composite material and designed to work with the original shock towers. Additional vertical carbon reinforcements further increase chassis rigidity compared to the standard configuration. The lower shock mounts remain the original Axon parts. At the rear, they are mounted underneath the arm and swapped left to right, while at the front they are mounted above the arm, also swapped left to right, to avoid any interference with the anti-roll bar. The composite upper mounts are designed to work with the original carbon body post holder, allowing the rear body posts to be repositioned from the standard horizontal layout to a vertical configuration, typically used in modified class racing. The kit also features a redesigned downstop screw position for precise and easy adjustments, along with a complete set of hardware including M3 screws, longer set screws for the camber link, and M3 nuts to be inserted into the dedicated seats in the composite upper mounts. All components have been designed, tested, and refined on track, with a clear focus on improving performance.

WIRC Racing LM26 1:10 LM Prototype

On the back of its F26 1:10 Formula chassis released last month, Italian manufacturer WIRC Racing introduces its latest LM26 1:10 LM Prototype kit based on the same car. The LM26 is almost identical to the F26 which for 2026 got a new chassis design, a completely new rear pod & updated rear diffuser, plus a new simplified shock absorber. The changes to the LM26 kit are the aerodynamic Le Mans body shell, a new front bumper with body posts as well as an extra central carbon fibre brace which positions body mounting posts just in front of each rear wheel.

Ulitech Awesomatix Diff Tool Set

Czech brand Uli-Tech has created this Diff Tool set for building Awesomatix diffs. The company say it is specially designed to make your work as easy as possible during rebuilds, including the fact that you do not have to remove the pulley during installation, and excess oil is guided by the seal to an easily wipeable place. The development was carefully tested by people who have been racing with the Awesomatix chassis for a long time and who are confident this tool will make your work much easier and more precise. For video demo of the Uli-Tech Diff Tool click here.

Feldmann wins ELS opener at Lostallo

The opening round of the Euro Large Scale Series (ELS) 2026 took place at Lostallo in Switzerland over the weekend where it was reigning 1:5 Touring Car World Champion Markus Feldmann who took the win. In qualifying it was Feldmann who took his GRP equipped Mecatech to the TQ honours and a new lap record ahead of Italian’s Emanuele D’amico and Edoardo Repetti. In Super Pole shot out, it was D’amico who locked himself a direct spot into the half hour final. While D’amico set the fastest lap of the final he could not deny his German rival the win, Feldmann’s advantage after 75-laps being almost 10-seconds. With Repetti retirng from the race after 18-minutes, the podium was completed by Belgium racer Giovanni Verbrugghe who started from 10th on the grid. Behind him reigning European Champion Carsten Keller came home in P4. Round 2 of the Euro Large Scale Series takes place over the weekend of June 26-28, again at Lostallo, the race also serving as the official Warm-up Race for the Large Scale World Championships scheduled for August.

PN Racing CXR 1:28 Lexan Body

New from 1:28 racing specialists and World Cup organisers PN Racing comes the all-new CXR Lexan Body. The company which was found in 2002 by Philip Ng say the CXR is specifically engineered for the most demanding tracks and is designed to push the limits of speed and agility. Focusing on the core physics that matter on the track it features an Ultra-Low CG and is designed to sit low on the chassis, minimising body roll and keeping your car planted. Reduced Drag is achieved by its streamlined profile that slices through the air for higher top speeds on the straights. It also has increased downforce thanks to optimised front and rear aero to maximise tyre grip when it matters most. Responsive handling lets you dive into the apex with confidence and exit with speed. The CXR is available in two specialised thicknesses to suit your racing style and track conditions. The 0.7mm Standard Weight version is the perfect balance of durability and performance for daily racing and high-impact sessions. The 0.5mm Light Weight version is the ultimate choice for serious competitors shaving off every possible gram to achieve lightning-fast acceleration and the sharpest transitions.

Avalon Vortex Touring Car Body

New German RC start-up Avalon Racing has unveil its upcoming Vortex 1:10 Electric Touring Car Body Shell releasing a number of renders of its first creation. Established by Andy Kühne and Julius Schaefer, they say the Vortex is an all-new, high-performance polycarbonate bodyshell designed from the ground up. Developed entirely in Germany using state-of-the-art 3D CAD technology and validated through extensive on-track testing by various drivers, they say Vortex is set to become a serious contender for competitive drivers seeking measurable aerodynamic gains. Using a complete rethink of downforce and rotation, at the heart of the Vortex concept is a fundamental re-engineering of how downforce, rotation, and chassis responsiveness interact at the limit. The body’s signature ducktail rear design simultaneously reduces rotational inertia and generates strong, predictable downforce through corners — a combination that translates directly into higher corner speeds and more consistent lap times. A curved rear wing profile ensures optimal airflow and rear grip, while a wide rear wing adjustment range gives drivers the flexibility to fine-tune the setup for different track surfaces, grip levels, and driving styles. Additional geometric stiffness built into the body structure ensures that aerodynamic loads are transferred efficiently to the chassis. The EFRA-Homologated Avalon Vortex, which will be made in Germany, is scheduled for release in Spring 2026.
