Ultimate Racing fuel filter & exhaust gas cooler

Modelix Racing have announced the release of the new Ultimate Racing fuel filter and exhaust gas cooler. Both feature machined and red anodised aluminium cans that offer a heatsink design for looks and functionality. While adding visual impact, the fins can also help to reduce the temperature of both the fuel and exhaust gas which can lead to better idling, as well as slightly increased power and run time. Included with the fuel filter and exhaust gas cooler, the latter is being placed into the pressure line between the exhaust pipe and fuel tank, come plastic mounting clamps for easy installation. Both accessories are available separately or as combo package.

Pro-Line 1969 Chevrolet Nova drag car body

Pro-Line have introduced the iconic 1969 Chevrolet Nova body specifically designed for the growing SC drag racing scene. This body is perfect for no-prep drag racing and features an ultra-realistic one-piece body design and includes an optional add on spoiler to complete the drag racing look. It helps to transform a Traxxas Slash 2WD SC truck into a scale ¼-mile beast with this retro hardtop sports coupe body, featuring all the scale details of the full-scale counterpart. Pro-Line recommend using their Hoosier 2.2” drag racing front tyres on the front and Hoosier drag slick SC 2.2”/3.0” drag racing tyres in the rear combined with a set of their Pomona drag spec wheels for the ultimate scale hot-rod look. In order to create the most scale look possible, the body is designed with a narrower track width than a traditional SC body and will require some modifications to the 2WD Slash to fit correctly.

Yeah Racing M07 competition conversion kit

Following a couple of teasers on social media, Yeah Racing have finally fully unveiled their race-orientated competition chassis conversion set for the Tamiya M07 M-chassis kit. The chassis and drivetrain conversion does away with many of the standard plastic parts in favour of high-quality carbon fibre and aluminium items that not only look a lot cooler, the conversion also adds precision, adjustability and performance. It allows to use 210mm, 225mm or 239mm wheelbase settings, adds suspension adjustability and it includes a fluid-filled gear differential that improves traction while allowing to adjust diff action through different oil thickness. Two different front body mounts enable the use to utilise the standard M07 body mounting position or bumper-mounted body posts for greater body choices. Included in the set come upper and lower carbon fibre chassis parts, carbon fibre shock towers, as well as alloy bulkheads, steering assembly, suspension mounts and also ball races, battery mounts and even a set of balance weights.
