Two new items from Team Associated for the RC10B74.1 and the RC10T6.2. The new HT 0 carbon fibre steering block arms for the RC10B74.1 help make the steering less aggressive off centre with a smoother turn-in feel, which helps improve drivability in high-traction conditions. For the RC10T6.2, the new longer length CVA bone allows for the use of RC10B6.3 Wide Arm Mounts C and D on T6.2 and SC6.2 trucks. The longer driveshaft and wider arm mount give the truck more grip and stability on all surfaces.
From T-Works for the Xray X4, is this 6mm bearing wheel hub axle. Available in standard and -0.5mm offset they help improve traction by joining the wheel hub directly to the wheel axle. The axle comes supplied with the mounting clip and are sold in pairs.

Xpress have released a number of upgrade parts for the Dragnalo DR1S, including some graphite upgrades and an aluminium motor mount which connects the rear end to the middle of the chassis. The motor mount which has the rear bulkhead integrated, removes the flex that might occur when delivering large amounts of power during your drag runs. This allows for better power delivery on startup. The new graphite chassis reduces the flex of the chassis and gives more consistent performance during hot weather when compared to the stock fibre glass chassis. A new motor mount plate is now also available in graphite, reinforcing the motor area to reduce flex when applying power to the car and is available for both 1/8 motors and 540 motors. A graphite shock tower, which also fits on our Execute XQ2S, enables you to run their short shocks. And finally, the new graphite top deck further controls the flex of your chassis, changing to this will give you a more consistent chassis similar to the effect of the graphite chassis as it deals with high temperatures better.

From Exotek for the Losi 1/10 Tenacity and Lasernut series comes a bunch of new option parts. The new rear hubs are made from heavy duty 7075 alloy, works as either the left or right hub and uses the stock hardware. The design also maintain your suspension geometry setting, race after race and has a polished finish and anodised in factory gun metal. Also new is the precision machined alloy rear clamping 12mm hex set, again with a matching finish to the hubs. Finally, they have produced a heavy duty hardened steel 40t spur gear. No more melted or stripped teeth and the part will last much longer than the stock plastic spur when running with high powered electronics.

Tekno RC have announced the release of two new optional shock towers for the EB/NB48 2.0 buggies. Improve the handling of your EB/NB48 2.0 with this new 7075 aluminium, CNC machined front and rear shock towers. The shock and camber link mounting locations on both towers have been fine-tuned, making it easier to dial your vehicle into the track conditions. An extra column of inner camber link positions was added to allow running a longer front and rear link for added stability. They also added an additional shock position to further lay down the front shocks for high grip tracks. The rear tower features two additional, higher wing mount positions have also been added to increase high-speed downforce and mid-corner rear grip. Both towers are gun metal anodised.
