‘Black’ Avid Truss 1:8 Truck Wheel

Avid RC have announced that its popular Truss 1:8 Truck wheel is now available in black. The wheel gets its ‘Truss’ name from the internal ribbing that uses the strength of triangles instead of having straight ribs. The focus of the Truss starts at the centre of the wheel so the tighter triangles help keep the torque strength right where you want it when applying full throttle, at the nut.

Maifield with the main win at The Wicked Weekend

The big offroad race action in the US over the weekend saw all the top drivers travel to Gainesville, Georgia, for Racetime Entertainment’s ‘The Wicked Weekend’, where Mugen’s Ryan Maifield was very much the man on form. In qualifying the JConcepts driver would produce a TQ triple securing the top spot on the grid in Pro Nitro Truggy, E-Buggy and the big one Pro Nitro Buggy. While the Truggy win would escape him, a great battle with Dakotah Phend seeing the TLR driver get ahead of him to come out on top, Maifield took both Buggy finals. While TLR’s Ryan Cavalieri started P2 in the E-Buggy ahead of Kyosho’s Ryan Lutz, it was to be 5th place qualifier Phend who came through for second behind Maifield with 3rd going to Lutz. In the Pro Nitro Buggy class, Maifield’s win came after a great battle that went the distance with second place qualifier Lutz. HB Racing’s Mason Fuller completed the Top 3 ahead of team-mate Cole Ogden and Sworkz Joe Bornhorst.

Tekno RC NB48 2.1 4wd competition nitro buggy

The Tekno RC NB48 2.0 has remained a customer favourite all over the world over the passed 3 years due to its incredible rough track handling, extreme durability, ease of maintenance, and innovative design features. Tekno RC wanted to take the NB48 platform to the next level, and knew it was time for a major upgrade. In typical Tekno RC fashion, the NB48 2.1 had to offer exceptional value while also including never-before-seen features. Of course, they had to include several already released hop-up items, but we also needed to push 1/8th buggy design to its limits. The team has been testing individual components of the new buggy for quite some time, but on his first outing with the full production NB48 2.1, Jared Tebo was able to place it on the podium at the 2022 Southern Nationals and on its second outing, Jared Wiggins took the win at the 2022 MidAmerica Outdoor Visions race.

JConcepts S2 B6.4 bodyshell

Dubbed the S2, the new JConcepts shell rocks some familiar features but rolled together with a low-profile stance. With 2015 IFMAR Championship credibility backing this design, it’s an easy choice. The S2 is a performer straight out of the package, with the Carpet, Turf rear wings to help deliver results on any racing circuit. Slammed overall height allows the S2 to whisk through the turns with a low centre of mass while the progressive cab design provides plenty of front-end force for superior balance and steering. A channeled roof directs the flow through the centre of the body while also increasing the rigidity of cockpit. The dual side-window design that has become famous on the JConcepts bodies remains to bring a traditional feel to the layout. The upper side-pods feature distinct vents which can be used to relieve hot air build-up inside the body for those high-powered runs or hot days at the track. Carved and detailed side-pods edge the body giving the highly aero unit a stylish look with a tight fit and finish. Cut lines are included on the shell to neatly finish around the chassis, steering, and transmission area of the B6.4 vehicles.
