Losi Tuned Flex 8ight-T Chassis

Losi have released this Tuned Flex Technology Chassis for the popular 8ight-T truggy, having been previously available for the 8ight buggy. It has been milled at exact points to give more flex to the chassis while not sacrificing chassis flex at the gear mesh, which greatly improved overall traction and stability on all track surfaces and has been vigorously tested worldwide by Losi drivers Adam Drake, Mike Truhe and Yannick Aigoin. This lighter chassis will reduce the vehicle’s overall weight to provide increased acceleration and better handling.

Pro Line Velocity V2 Wheels

Also new from Pro Line are the Velocity V2 wheels, that are Larger in diameter and width than previous wheels to give your car more traction and stability. The V2’s are 1.3mm wider and 3mm taller than the traditional size 1:8 wheels, which transfers into a stiffer side wall for less side wall flex enhancing stability and connectivity with your 1:8 buggy. This is achieved by using the same size 1:8 tires that you use now. Simply stretch standard tires over the V2 wheels and you’re ready to go. Additional features include an integrated hot runner system when the wheel is produced, which allows the wheel to be moulded to the tightest of tolerances and the ultimate in trueness.

Pro-Line Vortex for Kyosho Lazer ZX-5

Get ready to cool those high voltage brushed or brushless systems in your Kyosho Lazer ZX-5 with the new Vortex body by Pro-Line. Designed to give your car the latest in off-road styling and function, the Vortex was born from today’s top electric racer IFMAR Off-Road World Champion, Ryan Cavalieri. “We need a body that will better cool the brushless systems we are using and looks like it is ready to compete,” says Ryan Cavalieri. So, Ryan, along with Pro-Line’s body moulding experts, set out to create something that improved the overall performance of the car’s electronics and the car’s performance on the track. With 4 unique cooling features (1 on each side of the body, 1 directly underneath the front wind shield, and 1 on top of the cab), the Vortex received it’s name.
