Novarossi Safe Storage plugs

Novarossi have released this set of 3 safe storage plugs, designed to cover all the openings on the engine. Most racers have multiple engines and this means that 1 or more engines are being stored away somewhere amongst your racing gear. A plastic bag gives some protection but it is not dust & oil proof, and that is where these plastic plugs come in. Placing them over the carburettor, fuel nipple and exhaust port, this closes the engine fully and keeps dust and debris outside the engine, and oil inside the engine. Available for both 3.5cc/4.66cc engines and 2.10cc/2.5cc engines.

Xray T2’008 Asphalt Upper Deck set

Xray T2′008 Asphalt Upper Deck set

Xray have released this graphite, asphalt-spec, front and rear upper deck set for the T2’008 touring car. CNC machined from premium grade graphite material, they have been specially designed and optimized for rubber-tire racing conditions. The narrow design provides appropriate torsion and flex, while the elongated profile reduces unwanted tweak in crashes. A new thinner 2mm top deck makes the car easier to drive because it increases overall traction and so Xray recommend using this optional top deck on low-traction tracks, mainly on asphalt but they can be also used on low-traction carpet. Suitable for the T2’008 EU edition only.

GM Racing Brushless Pro 6T motor

GM Racing Brushless Pro motors

We recently told you about the new range of Brushless Pro motors from GM Racing, but to add to the range that was already announced, a 6T version is also now available. This is the motor the current British Champion Chris Grainger has been using recently with great success, winning the recent Aldershot BRCA National. The 6T delta winding is equivalent to a regular 3T, with the delta type winding giving greater efficiency and therefore run time over the normal Y type winding as per most current brushless motors. Pricing on this motor is also extremely competitive but does not reflect its awesome performance.
