Hudy 1:10 Touring Car & FWD Alu Tweak Set-Up Wheels

Famed for its set-up tools and stations, Hudy has released a new aluminium set-up wheel design.  Used for precise and repeatable tweak adjustment on 1:10 Touring Car and FWD chassis, the rigid aluminium construction eliminates inaccuracies caused by rubber or foam tires, allowing accurate chassis balance checks.  Rubber and foam tires are never perfectly round and often differ in diameter due to manufacturing tolerances and wear, which can lead to misleading tweak readings. Aluminium set-up wheels remove these variables completely, ensuring reliable and consistent measurements.  Each wheel is CNC-machined to exact tolerances and perfectly matched within the set for maximum setup precision.

Boost RC F1Ultra R5 Spring Steel Chassis

Boost RC has introduced its first chassis dedicated to the 1:10 Formula category, developed specifically for the Exotek F1Ultra R5.  The project was conceived around one of the most unique cars in the modern Formula class.  Compared to the standard carbon chassis, the 1.5mm spring steel plate delivers a smoother and more progressive handling characteristic, increasing overall traction while reducing the sudden reactions typically caused by chassis flex during rapid direction changes.  Beyond the handling improvements, the steel construction also lowers the centre of gravity and provides a more planted feel, helping the car maintain speed through technical sections on both carpet and asphalt tracks.  Due to the 1.5mm chassis thickness, Boost RC adopted custom 90-degree countersunk M3 screws with Torx T10 head across the entire chassis.  This solution ensures perfect fitment while improving durability and screw engagement during assembly and maintenance.  The original Exotek design uses an M4 screw for the front wing mount, which also acts as the front body post mounting point.  To maintain compatibility with the new chassis design while keeping the use of M3 hardware, Boost RC developed a dedicated mounting system consisting of a rear mounting insert with a dedicated M3 nut pocket, a custom front body post with a 4mm insert, compatible with the standard front wing mounting hole used by most Formula wings, but designed for an M3 screw.  A spacer plate installed between chassis and front wing to compensate for the 1.0mm thickness difference compared to the original 2.5mm carbon chassis.

The Direct Drive Experiment by Jilles Groskamp

This has the potential to break the internet as touring car racers dissect every aspect of his creation but credit to Jilles Groskamp for this super interesting build he has called ‘The Direct Drive Experiment’.  A driver renowned for his technical knowledge and attention to detail in developing car set-ups, having been a kingpin in the glory days of the Tamiya Racing Factory team, the IFMAR World Champion has created a very special Infinity IF14 Speciale that no longer features a drivetrain!  Instead the Cayote electronics sponsored driver has fitted the car with four in-wheel drone 1400Kv motors with independent control of each using a micro controllers.  Putting the car through its paces at his home track the MACH in the Netherlands, where he won his 2012 ISTC World Championship, could the reigning Nitro Touring Car World Champion be onto something and have just created the future direction for electric touring car design?  Watch his video of the experiment here.
