Xray T4’20 1.6mm carbon fibre upper deck

Coming from Xray and made for their all-new T4 2020 mid-motor touring car kit is a 1.6mm carbon fibre upper deck. Thinner than the kit top deck the 1.6mm variant is best used in combination with the aluminium flex or solid chassis as it allows for a softer overall chassis setting compared to the 2.0mm part which helps especially in lower grip conditions where a softer setting can improve steering and rear side bite. Like the original top deck the thinner variant is fully symmetrical and usable with the rear ball bearing or bushing chassis stiffeners to further fine-tune the overall chassis flex.

Yeah Racing M08 carbon fibre optionals

Coming from Yeah Racing and made for the Tamiya M08 M-chassis kit are several new carbon fibre option parts. The range includes front and rear damper stays, a front bumper plate as well as a body mount base set. All parts are a direct fit and while looking a lot better than the standard plastic items, they also help with overall rigidity and precision, adding to the overall performance – in case of the damper stays – while also helping with more secure body mounting for less wobbling and thus better aerodynamics, in case of the front bumper plate and body mount base set.
