R1 Wurks have released this 10,000mAh 130C 2S Graphene battery. Aimed at those needing the absolute highest power, this pack is focussed towards the drag racing segment where the high capacity equates to lower voltage drop under load. This in turn allows you to cool down and do multiple runs and expect close to consistent times.

Serpent have updated their 1/24th scale S240 for 2021. First introduced over a decade ago, the car has now received its first major update with a number of major changes to what is essentially a miniaturised 12th scale. The front end consists of a floating carbon fibre plate pivoting on 2 soft silicone grommets mounted with aluminium posts to the main chassis, creating excellent front end grip. Machined aluminium steering blocks with nylon inserts provide smooth operation and adjustable toe in combined with durable anodised track-rods offer precision-steering. The chassis plate is made made from 1.5mm carbon with intergraded, yet free to flex, rear pod which is home to the rear ball differential. Carbon fibre upper radio plate accepts micro car electronics from all the major brands. Finally to cap it all off the car comes with a clear GTP type body-shell in lightweight 0,5mm material, for great looks and superb handling.
