RDRP T6.2 & SC6.2 hard front anti-roll bar set

Revolution Design have released this hard front anti-roll bar set for the T6.2 & SC6.2 (1.5/1.6/1.7mm). Although today’s stadium and short course trucks are based on low-centre-of-gravity platforms, available options still focus on dirt tracks. As a consequence, racers are either to improvise or will be unable to unlock their trucks’ full potential on high-grip surfaces. With their wide front tires, trucks can be a handful on carpet and Astroturf, because the anti-roll bars on the market are not up to the task of taming down your front end, until now that is. RDRP has come up with a set of three anti-roll bars with high-grip racetracks in mind. Available at an economic price, this is a welcome option for everyone racing an Associated 6 series truck on carpet or Astroturf.

Infinity IF14-II HBP mount set

New for the Infinity IF14-II is this HBP (Horizontal Body Post) mount set for mounting the body posts in a horizontal position at the rear end of the car. By mounting the rear body posts horizontally the centre of gravity around the rear of the car is lowered and the downforce of the body is transmitted more efficiently to the chassis, improving corner speed. When using the HBP mount it can be difficult to accurately position the rear body post holes in the bodyshell. By using their new rear body height fitter it is quick and easy to precisely position the body post holes at the desired body height.
