RC Maker T4’20 GeoCarbon shock towers

Coming from RC Maker are new GeoCarbon series shock towers for the Xray T4 2020 mid-motor touring car. Available for the front and rear of the car, the shock towers feature a dual-sided GeoCarbon finish and they are 3mm thick with a re-designed profile to introduce a marginal amount of flex, giving the car more traction, which is very often highly favourable for all asphalt racing, as well as low-medium traction carpet tracks. The towers are available mimicking the standard shock geometry and they also come as -3mm variant, allowing to access the new lower A-arm shock mounting position that can be an advantage in higher grip track conditions.

Arrowmax 2020 competition LiPo battery packs

Arrowmax have introduced three new competition LiPo battery packs for 1/10th touring cars. First up is a new ultra low centre of gravity 7.4V 5900mAh pack that offers a height of only 19.5mm and a weight of 250g while being of a standard 139x47mm footprint. New higher capacity cells allow for ample power supply for power-hungry modified motors or stock class racing. The pack’s low height will ensure an overall lower centre of gravity, increasing cornering speeds especially in high-bite track conditions. Also new are two Narrow Fit slim-style 7.4V battery packs of 5500mAh and 6200mAh capacity. They weigh in at 237g and 242g respectively and are only 37mm in width which will help to centralise the weight especially of the new generation of mid-motor touring cars. Using a slim battery will improve cornering speeds and stability, allowing to squeeze extra performance out of mid-motor cars.

Bezerk Litesabre 235mm Pro10 chassis kit

Bezerk from Australia have introduce their very first chassis kit in the form of the Litesabre 235mm Pro10 chassis. Bezerk were first approached by Shannon Overson in January 2019 about building the ultimate Pro10 for the Brendale track in Queensland, Australia. Brendale is known for its size, grip level and facilities, thus it being selected for the Nitro Worlds in 2020. The designers of the Litesabre were aiming for something that was easy to drive at Modified speed and have a heap of tuning features for the enthusiast pan car racer. The features list starts with a unique stepped chassis that allows wheelbase adjustment without having to change steering components, its higher front ground clearance that is great for high speed with higher downforce bodies, minimising the front of chassis ever hitting the track, while offering better cornering clearance. The wearable rear chassis is cheaper to replace, and the ability to flush mount the front bumper and clean up the aero whilst protecting the front edge of the chassis adds to the overall performance.

Schumacher Cougar Laydown alloy diff conversion

Coming from Schumacher and made for their Cougar Laydown, KD, KR and SV2 kits is an aluminium diff conversion. The alloy case gives super precision and strength and has a larger oil volume for more consistency during a run while also helping with temperate management. The main large shim also thicker for more reliability. The conversion includes all parts necessary and the externals are also available separately so drivers can use donor parts from their current diff.

Ruddog Distribution have introduced their new Tire Glue line of CA super glues. Available as thin and medium viscosity variants the glues are ideal to securely bond on-road and off-road rubber tyres to their wheels with the thin variant being ideal to let the glue flow into even the smallest of gaps while the medium variant is also usable to seal tyre sidewalls in order to counter traction rolling. Both glues come in 20g bottles and they include angled glue tips to make application even more convenient.

7075.it A800MMX LCG aluminium chassis

7075.it have introduced new LCG aluminium chassis for the Awesomatix A800MMX mid motor touring car. Available as standard, read: more flexible variant and also in full-face High Traction specification, both chassis will improve the car’s handling in medium to high-bite traction conditions with the heavier machined chassis being ideal for medium grip tracks due to increased torsional flex while the solid surface High Traction variant is best used in high to ultra high traction conditions. Both come with a hard-anodised surface coating and they are available separately or including a 2-piece set of snuggly fitting screw-on front brass weights.
