Made in the USA from carbon fibre, the Front Bumper Brace & Body Mount Plate adds both form and function to the TC8. It also adds a second set of body mount locations, spaced further apart to move your posts away from pesky hood ribs or to better suit the shape of your body. Matching the style of the 1up Racing Rear Vertical Plate, the front version features the same dual-level design. This plate accepts the original body posts included in the TC8 kit. The Front Body Support braces the hood area of your super light weight bodies to keep the structural integrity intact for consistent aero and downforce at high speeds. The design of the 1up Body Support features racy, goose-neck wing inspired styling while having minimal influence on chassis flex. It’s easy to install with just two screws into the front bulkhead, on top of the upper bumper plate. Then, install the included lightweight M2.5 Pro Duty Titanium Screw and set the height to just touch the underside of the hood when the body is at correct race-ready height.

Atomic MRV 1:28 V-Link RWD Chassis Kit

1:28 specialist manufacturer RC Atomic has announced the upcoming release of its MRV kit. The MRV has Atomic’s new developed side link RWD chassis which features a new idea, inspired from 1:10 pan car (Fenix Racing), the V-Link pivot system. With this new solution they have been able to further lower the chassis roll centre which couldn’t be achieved previously because of physical limitations that you cannot fix a centre pivot ball below the chassis plate – e.g the MRZ and similar platforms on the market which use Horizontal center pivot ball. While the V-Link system offering a “virtual roll centre”, where the imaginary joint of the 2 short pivot links, that is ultra-low and result in more mechanical grip when the car attacking corners, more mid corner speed and linear steering response. This makes the car easier to drive, with more rear grip, and more speed exiting corners. How do you choose between MRX and MRV ? The MRX is more suitable for open class with high KV motors and big tracks, because link-less system offers better overall stability. The new MRV is good for lower KV motors, such as 2500kv or stock class, since the MRV is lighter and more responsive in handling especially suit for small or tight tracks.
