Schelle Nova slipper clutch for AE & TLR kits

Schelle Racing Innovations introduce the Nova slipper clutch designed for the use with many Team Associated and TLR vehicles. The original 3-plate clutch was released back in 2012 and now Schelle has the latest incarnation of Kurt Wenger’s design available. It is a direct fit onto the B5, B5M and TLR 22 2.0 and solves problems kit clutches can have such as degrading and lock-up. In addition, it is smaller and weighs less making it ideal for stock racers while also offering up to 20 percent more torque capacity. The Nova sets include 2 white and 2 red slipper pads and a tuning guide to help racers learn how to tune the clutch for different conditions from slick to astro-turf. The clutches are available as Stock set including 72T and 76T spur gears, as Buggy kit including 78T and 81T geas and as SC and Truck specific set including two 84T main gears.

JConcepts TLR 22-4 Silencer bodyshell

JConcepts introduce the Silencer bodyshell for the TLR 22-4 buggy. Sporting the distinctive Silencer “mild” cab forward design with a roof top shark fin, the body is designed for high-speed tracks and features forward raised side-pods which at the front have a heavy chamfer against the chassis with two trim lines which can be cut-out for increased flow around vehicle electrical. At the rear of the cab, two mini-pod outlets can be reamed to size for air exit cooling. A slight recess just behind the cab with channeling out the rear provides rear-end stability and can also be trimmed for additional flow. The Silencer side-pods have a clipped rear-end, narrowing the rear by angling in just in front of the rear tyres. The rear side-pods angle sharply toward the shock tower and wing, enhancing the force placed on the rear pods during high-speed acceleration. The body comes clear, including window masks, decal sheet and two 6.5″ Hi-Clearance rear wings.
