A simple update from SWorkz who have released their plastic suspension bracket inserts in red. The standard S35-4 series black plastic inserts are now available in this striking red colour and they will fit all S35-4, S35-GT2 and S35-T2 nitro and electric series cars.
Having previously teased the new K303 engine, FX have released some further details on this new .21 buggy motor. With a focus on longer runtime, this 3-port motor has a DLC coated crankshaft which has been balanced with two tungsten inserts and comes as standard with a ceramic rear bearing. Externally the biggest change over its predecessor is the 9-rib cooling head.

Yokomo have introduced their ‘Zero-S’ series of drift motors. Available in 3 colours including black, red and purple, which have been requested by many users to best match with the colours of the YD-2 series of cars. Although it has a slightly more torque, it has a smoother throttle feeling than previous versions, which makes it easier to handle in the low to medium speed range and it is set to make traction control easier in RWD drift cornering and straight.

Exotek have introduced their new turbine cooling triple slipper disks for the DR10 and TLR 22 top shafts for quicker slipper cool downs before the next pass. Provides added consistency due to 3 friction plates and slipper cooling via the extra heat sink fins that also spins as fan blades as the motor turns for increased air flow over the slipper plate therefore helping reduce heat glazing of the slipper pads which results in melted pads. Includes 3 high grade LCF pro style slipper pads for Octalock type Associated spur gears (gear not included). Has a small 12mm inner diameter for more surface area for improved slipper efficiency and works with the stock DR10/TLR 22 top shafts and requires AE Octalock spur gears. Also from Exotek is this new heavy duty steel top shaft replacement for the 2wd Slash based drag cars for use with DR10 slipper sets or Exotek MK #2012 #2015 slipper sets or the Exotek #1942 slipper eliminator. A 1-piece no-pin construction for maximum reliability but still weighing only 12.5gr each.
