Exotek DEX210 aluminium suspension mounts

Exotek Racing introduce new low roll centre aluminium suspension mounts for the Team Durango DEX210 buggy. Available are a RF Hanger with shims, and two LRC mounts with standard or +0.5° toe-in setting. Starting with the RF mount, the part allows to use a 2mm lower roll centre with 0° or 1.5° kick-up or the standard roll centre with 0° or 1.5° kick-up by adding the included shims under the hanger. The easy shimming option does away with the need to disassemble the whole rear end of the vehicle only to change the roll centre or kick-up settings. The set is machined from 7075 aluminium, comes anodised and works with the DEX210 alloy chassis, DIMEC type A or the optional Exotek chassis both in MM and RM configuration.

Shepherd Velox V10 competition clutch

Shepherd announce the release of the high performance competition clutch set for the Velox V10. Included in the set are the optional aluminium clutch bell, an updated flywheel and the optional yellow clutch shoe. The combination of these parts is meant improve the acceleration significantly due to a 35 percent weight saving compared to the standard clutch with the old-design flywheel. The yellow clutch shoe also is machined from a special high grip material that is a bit harder than the standard black material. Due to the high friction surface the whole clutch assembly produces less slip for increased acceleration, especially when running on high-grip surfaces or with high RPM engaging points.
