Max Power MX 02649 EFRA pipe set

Max Power have released the new MX 02649 EFRA homologated pipe set for the 2009 season. Looking to the 2009 EFRA rules, were an INS box will be required for the 1/10th scale touring car races, Max Power have released this new pipe design. The long shape and slim volume make the engine rev free throughout all ranges, and while fast in the straights it retains super bottom end power, a popular characteristic for the touring class.

BMI Racing 'Big Wheels' 64P pinions

BMI Racing have announced their new line of ‘Big Wheels’ 64 pitch pinions. Due to the gearing requirements of brushless motors they have noticed the need for high quality pinion gears which are larger than what is currently on the market. Also, due to recent developments in 3.7v LiPo 1/12th racing, bigger pinion gears will become necessary. Big Wheels pinions are available in 45 to 60 teeth (shown with 78 spur) and they are machined from aluminium then plated with Nickel Teflon, a coating which is very hard and has very low friction.

Hot Bodies Moorespeed 908 bodyshell

Hot Bodies, under the Moorespeed label, have released this new 908 bodyshell, which has been designed for 1/12th scale circuit racing. This totally new design was developed from the ground up to be the ideal bodyshell for a wide range of racers and tracks. The air rushing over the bodyshell starts at the ground-level splitter and is forced over the front wheels and around the closed cockpit by sculpted flow channels. Ridges over the front wheels disrupt the air just enough to break it loose over the wheel arches until it flows back down slightly over the middle section of the body. The closed cockpit area helps stabilize the air as it rushes over the midsection, which hugs the battery and electronics area of the car chassis as closely as possible. As the air meets the rear wheels, further ducting and vertical supports direct the air over the rear spoiler, where a huge amount of downforce is created. Molded from crystal clear polycarbonate, it features clear overspray film, a pre-cut vinyl window mask sheet, and a decal sheet with headlights and Hot Bodies logos. Also available in lightweight version.
