Takashima D-13 Black Luxury Edition Spring Steel Chassis

Following the successful release of their spring steel touring car chassis, Takashima D-13 now introduces the Black Luxury Edition spring steel chassis which is finished with advanced DLC coating technology.  Every difficulty became motivation for further development and improvement and due to the physical characteristics of spring steel, it is highly sensitive to humidity and salt in the air, making it extremely prone to surface rust.  While this does not affect its performance, it can impact the overall visual experience for drivers.  After extensive testing and multiple coating trials, Takashima D-13 ultimately selected DLC technology as the solution.  This not only effectively prevents rust, but also transforms the chassis from its original silver finish into a deep black tone, while preserving the natural metallic grain texture.  The result is a perfect fusion of industrial precision and mechanical artistry — the machining lines flow across the entire surface, giving the product a strong, refined presence.  Paired with their upcoming 120° carbon steel 12.9 grade black colour TORX screws, it creates a striking and cohesive visual statement on the track.

ONE Racing, the engine & accessory brand of onroad chassis manufacturer Capricorn, has released the own mold design 1:8 Onroad bodyshell they are calling the Inferno.  After numerous tests on various tracks, the Italian company felt the need to offer a bodyshell more in line with the latest setup trends and driving styles.  A modern evolution that optimises solutions already highly appreciated in the racing scene they have redesigned the front wheel arches to follow the trend towards narrower track widths. This allows for freer steering, without interference during cornering phases. Made using their own in-house machine molds, Inferno is available in two versions -Long and Short. Shortened both at the front and the rear, the short version offers a freer rear end, consistent with current trends that seek slight rear slip for a more aggressive corner entry.  A more stable front end, thanks to the reduced overhang between bumper and bodyshell, limits vibrations and improves overall feeling.  The body is available in regular (uncut) and pre-cut versions for the Capricorn Quantum, Capricorn C804R, Infinity, Serpent, Mugen MRX7, Xray, Shepherd, and ARC.

Xray X4’26 Glass Fiber Upper Decks

Xray has released these specially made glass fibre upper decks or their X4 ’26 1:10 Electric Touring Car.  The flexible & durable glass fibre material increases the flex of the car and improves handling on low-to medium traction tracks.  Machined from 1.5mm glass fibre material, the shape of the top deck has been specifically designed to achieve maximum traction and great steering characteristics at the same time.  The top deck can be connected to the motor mount using two alternatives. In Soft setting, only one rear screw is used.  This allows maximum flex and provides maximum steering.  However, the car is less stable on-power.  In Stiff setting, both screws are used.  This setting gives reduced flex both in front and rear.  Mid-corner steering is decreased, rotation is decreased.  This setting provides maximum stability and makes the car easier to drive.
