Reds Racing is always developing high performance and low fuel consumption products and the latest development is the Team Edition 2. It is derived from the well-known R5T and used by most of Reds Team drivers such as King, Vega, Magi, Candel, Tanaka and others. The new Team Edition 2 is the most advanced Reds off road engine and is the 3rd step of development of R5T booster version. It has been designed for reducing fuel consumption and increasing performance and features a highly efficient cooling system, improvements to the sleeve and crankshaft timing and some adjustments to the tuning. The new cooling system guarantees more efficiency in extreme working conditions thanks to a wider cooling head and combustion chamber. Furthermore the cooling system has a lower gravity center in order to improve vehicle dynamics.
