Hot Bodies have released a number of new parts for their World Champion 190mm chassis, the Cyclone. The release of 18T pulleys, in both standard and one way versions, give the Cyclone extra cornering traction and are an extra tuning option over the standard 16T pulleys. Use the pulleys to alter the front or rear traction properties of the car by adjusting each end independently, or add 18T pulleys for both front and rear drive belts. To cater for the larger diameter of these 2 new pulleys, HB have also released a new front and rear belt which is longer than the standard versions.

M Mod MRX-4 Brass Battery plate

M Mod MRX-4X Brass Battery plate

M Mod have released this brass battery plate, joining Serpent in manufacturing a heavweight battery holder to bring the cars center of gravity lower. Suitable for the Mugen MRX-4 range, the new plate is 54 grams and a direct replacement for the original kit version. The advantages of more weight lower in the car is that the car can corner faster, yet due to the batteries central location in the chassis, it doesnt slow direction changes.

GRP branded Sunglasses

The ultimate test of your brand allegiance, tyre and engine maker GRP have released these branded sunglasses. Unlike other brand glasses I have seen, these one don’t actually look too bad, despite the orange arms and GRP logo on the side and apparently they are well made and actually do a decent job of keeping the sun out of your eyes. I’m sure we will see them in the paddock at next weeks World Championship in Argentina.
