The highly anticipated colour versions of the MC-1 from Rêve D are finally ready for release. The MC-1 was the R.C.D.C champion from the all Japan cup in 2021, taking all podium places, and to celebrate they have released this limited version. A high quality red or purple anodising process has been applied to each aluminium part while keeping the enhanced properties of the original chassis, such as pitching & roll rigidity optimised for drift. Also included is the lightweight aluminium gear case, with excellent maintainability and their special design motor plate that can change the motor height without removing the spur gear unit. Furthermore, in this MC-1, comes with both types of upper deck so that it can be used with both slide rack and bell crank steering systems.

MXLR are happy to extend their production line with three new products to keep your RC model in the best shape and on the highest performance level. The new anti-wear grease is made in Germany with a special manufacturer for grease and oil. The special mixture reduces the wear of driveshafts and gears, and indeed all metal-to-metal connections. It is high pressure resistant and super sticky enabling it to stay in the right place. Next up is their new O-Ring grease, which is also produced in Germany and consists of well chosen high quality ingredients in a special mixture to protect O-Rings / seals against swelling or shrinking. Additionally, the grease further reduces the friction and adds extra smoothness for the perfect operation of dampers and gear diffs. Lastly is their new Elastic tire glue that stays elastic and offers phenomenal gluing power. The best choice for gluing your RC tires, as it doesn’t stiffen up the rubber-plastic combo as much as other glues. Your tire game will be a lot more consistent and smoother, resulting in better performance on the track. Also perfect for sidewall gluing of rubber and foam tires. The tire itself keeps the ability to ‘work’ as the sidewalls can still float/move, whilst the glue stays flexible and doesn’t get brittle.
Yokomo have introduced a limited edition ‘Teams’ version of their YD-2RX drift car. While based on the RX’s motor layout for high rear traction, the use of the Teams’ main chassis ensures a good steering feel. Not only does it have a sharp response to cornering, but it also provides better control while cornering. The suspension is also fully tuned with SLF big bore shocks, Team’s tapered shock pistons, titanium coated shock shafts and high grade O-rings, combined with the latest drifting springs for a competitive suspension. Other features include brass rear suspension mounts to improve rear traction, a LW integrated bulkhead to reduce front weight and a lightweight slide rack for weight balance. Available in red, black or purple versions.

From Exotek for the stock laydown/layback Associated B6.3-B6.2 top shafts, is this new super light alloy locked spur mount with titanium centre bolt for their lightest spur locker yet. Excellent for 17.5 stock buggy and high powered street eliminators, the mount and hardwares shown totals 5.1 grams. It uses a wider range of available spur gear sizes by Exotek and Kimbrough and allows for easy switching between a locked spur or slipper as track conditions warrant. It uses the stock top shaft for increased idler gear durability compared to narrowed top shafts.
Creation Model have produced these softer composite parts for the Infinity IF18-2. The new parts include a front lower arm end and the front suspension inserts. Both parts use a softer material than stock, which helps increase crash resistance and makes the steering response more mild and make it easier to drive.
