JConcepts Double Bar 1:8 Buggy Tire

JConcepts has officially released its newest 1:8 Buggy tyre, the Double Bar. The Florida based company brought the tyre to market during the march to the 1:8 IFMAR World Championship in Spain. Using previously unseen elements with the dual nature of the tread, the JConcepts item is an entirely different monster. The overlapping and repeated concept is one that intends to tackle conditioned track surfaces and heavy slick groove conditions like never before. Located in the infield of the tread, diamond patterned pins consume space, surface area, and ultimately a flexible arrangement that conforms to high-end racing conditions. As the dual tread intersects itself, a wall provides additional side bite and stability during hard side-loads and 180-degree corners. The soft and layered tread terminates at the edge, and it rolls off to give the tyre an easy transition for an easier driving feel. Inside, a firmer inner carcass webbing was built into the Double Bar to take on more difficult jumping tasks, faster speed European style track layouts, and reduce the ballooning effect of racing at higher speeds. The Double Bar arrives ready with Dirt-Tech inserts known for their durability, shape, and consistent feel in a multitude of track conditions.

JConcepts RC10GT rear shock tower

The most classic nitro stadium truck design in RC history, JConcepts has released a Carbon Fibre Rear Shock Tower option for the Team Associated RC10GT. The stock vehicle comes standard with a fiberglass unit which carries all the original geometry; however, it lacks the pizzazz, strength, optional holes and appearance that 3.0mm Carbon Fibre can provide. The new rear shock tower includes the Factory Team Truck geometry as well as the original for the best handling characteristics from that era. The tower includes detailed reinforced areas adding strength in key areas as well as the improvement in material creates a more rigid feel, increasing the response in the rear-end.

Excelerate RC Prodigy ‘F1’ 1:10 Formula Chassis

Another upcoming release from new entrant to the onroad chassis market Excelerate RC is their 1:10 Formula Chassis the Prodigy ‘F1’. Having shown us their 1:10 World GT-R contender while attending the MonTech NYGP, the Wisconsin based manufacturer also brought along their F1 which is set to go on release the first week of November. Racing at the NYGP, the designer of the Prodigy’s trio of new releases (1:12, World GT-R and F1) Josh Cyrul explained, ‘the ‘F1′ has a lot of carry over from the other cars with the kit going to come with the wings that are pictured which are eXcelerate RC’s own design. It will also include the body and halo in the kit.’ A veteran pan car racer, Cyrul added, ‘the kit will come with a solid rear axle to start with and it will be possible to use other brands gear differentials but we will have our own gear diff coming hopefully by the end of the year.’ Having planned to have the F1 out sooner, he explained, ‘One thing that slightly delayed the release was the front servo mount and rear motor plates. We didn’t realise how popular foam had become over in Europe so we wanted to make sure that right away it can also be run out of the box on foam tyres. So since the first prototype car we had to cut the servo mount brackets mounts more so their will be shims in there to lower the front and the motor plate so you’ll be able to run 55/56mm foam tyres.’

Ielasi Tuned Anti Vibration Kit

A simple and small idea from Ielasi Tuned is this Anti-vibration Kit dedicated for 1:8 Onroad use and their 2185Factory muffler. The kit is composed of two springs and two collars that are used to fix the muffler to the car, dampening the vibrations generated by the engine that could cause the muffler manifold to break. Depending on the length of the muffler support wire (each model has a different one) you can use either two collars or just one to fix the muffler.
