Xpress XM1 lowered aluminium shock towers

Coming for the Xpress XM1 and XM1S M-class touring cars are low profile aluminium shock towers. Both feature 1mm lowered shock mounting holes for improved stability throughout the corner with the sturdy alloy material providing less lateral flex compared to carbon fibre shock stays which further adds to improved stability during cornering on high-grip surfaces. The front and rear shock towers are available separately and they come with a black and red surface finish.

Rebellion-RC X1 multi wheelbase rear pod kit

Coming from RC-Carbonstore’s Rebellion-RC brand is a new multi wheelbase rear pod set for the Xray X1 formula kits. The set allows to enlarge the wheelbase by 2.5mm or 5.0mm, shifting the car’s weight bias further towards the front which can lead to improved steering characteristics. In addition the lever-moment of the centre shock gets longer, leading to softer damping and better absorption of curbs and bumps. Several side tube positions allow to fine-tune the cornering characteristics and the set, machined from high-quality carbon fibre also includes longer WTC mount side plates. The rear pod kit comes for the 2015 to 2019 variants of the X1 and it is available in a total of twelve carbon weave colours.
