Reflex Racing GLR GT brass chassis

Reflex Racing have released their GLR GT brass chassis, for the 1/28th GL Racing GT. Designed to increase stability, keep the car flatter and make it more consistent over a full run, they have achieved this by moving the weight bias of the car further forward by scalloping the battery area and making the front section wider. They also have finished the chassis in a slick, black coating with laser engraved Reflex logo and have chamfered the edges of the contact areas to reduce friction and make the chassis really pop.

Infinity IF14-2 flex shock towers

For the Infinity IF14-2, Creation Model have released a new line of flex shock towers. By reducing the rigidity of the shock tower connecting point to the upper bulkhead, the stiffness around the bulkhead section is reduced and the overall chassis flex is increased. When used up front it can result in a calmer initial steering response with the reduction in initial stiffness helps smooth out cornering and can help reduce tyre wear. In the rear it allows for smoother rear rotation. The rear tower comes in regular and horizontal body post versions.
