Calandra Racing Concepts have introduced two new option parts for the WTF1 1/10th formula car. First up are the A-arms CRC have received a lot of requests for. First spotted on Frank Calandra’s Cleveland TQ car in 2016, the prototype A-arms have been refined and tweaked and are now ready for public consumption. They are strong, precision manufactured and improve the feeling of the front end.
Speedtech RC, the brand of German 1/12th scale wizard Markus Mobers, is now offering a red anodised aluminium chassis and lower pod plate set for the CRC CK25. Developed and tested by Speedtech RC team drivers, the prototype chassis has already achieved some racing pedigree by winning the Masters of Foam race. The chassis set is considered to be a hot ticket for all high-traction environments – as they are expected for the upcoming 1/12th scale EFRA Euros in Sittard. The alloy chassis set is a direct replacement and available now.

ARC have introduced an aluminium upper deck for the R11 2018 electric touring car. The item is cut from high-quality 7075-T6 aluminium and it comes black anodised and with silver edge details. The part is especially useful when running a carbon fibre chassis on medium-low carpet tracks as it makes for a stiffer chassis assembly compared to an all-carbon setup while allowing for more torsional flex than an aluminium chassis.
