Exotek Slash drag shock tower & titanium front axles

Two new items from Exotek Racing for drag racing your Slash with the release of new rear shock tower and titanium front axles. The heavy duty street racing low profile shock tower with multi hole settings lowers the ride height when using the stock long shocks and also extra mounting holes that allow you to use shorter front shocks on the rear. A wider tower so that you have the option to mount the shocks more straight up and are ideal for drag racing they are made from 4mm thick carbon fibre for an extra stiff tower that attaches to an alloy base for super secure mounting to your gear box as well as more secure camber rod mounting for less camber flex and more consistent handling. The precision machined premium titanium front axle set is for the 2wd Slash steering knuckles. At only 5.8 grams per pair compared with 12 grams for a pair of stock axles with alloy hexes, these axles are perfect for reducing rotating mass for quicker acceleration. The one piece machined axle with hex helps your tires run more true and balanced which is needed for high speed drag racing. Also includes two .5mm thick shims that allows you to space the front axle so that your car is wider or narrower for extra tuning.

Shepherd V10 chassis plate & carbon insert

From Shepherd there is a new chassis plate and carbon insert for their Velox V10. The new chassis plate is milled from high quality German 7075 T6 aerospace aluminium. It has to be used with the advanced weight system battery holder as it features a centre brace for 18g sliding weights which replace the regular battery holder. The possibility to move the weights in the centre of the chassis allows for quick fine tuning of the weight balance even in the pit lane. The stiffer design of the chassis plate improves the car’s overall handling and makes it more sensitive to setup changes. The optional 2mm front carbon stiffener is milled from finest carbon fibre and helps to reduce front flex resulting in an easier-to-drive car under various conditions.
