Some new items from Fenix Racing for their G56 pan car, starting with this new bumper. Shaped aerodynamically, it not only protects the front of the car but also helps generate more front end grip for improved high speed cornering. Also for the G56 are some optional front tuning springs, blue hard springs and white medium soft springs.
Reds Racing have teased their upcoming onroad engine, called the Pista. We have no other information about it except what we see in the image above, the notch in the mounting lugs suggesting they will now use same newer engine base as their latest offroad offerings. Full details as we get them.

Similar in concept and structure to the JConcepts clamping servo horns released yesterday, these new versions are specifically for the Associated B74. A clamping style servo horn, it is great for high-torque situations providing additional security and relieving some load to the servo splines themselves. The broad base of the horn tapers to the connection area where the steering takes place. The boss on the top surrounds the ball-end and provides a hefty surface for steering direction. Small ribs have been added on the sides to help strengthen the unit in a twisting fashion and a deep pocket hides the 3mm standard mounting screw. The entire horn has been retouched with chamfer highlight edging and laser etched with JC and the tooth count for high-end looks and authenticity.

Core RC’s new line-up of grease has been extensively tested by the Schumacher engineering department and factory race team to have you covered for all applications and comes supplied in larger than normal 10ml pots. First up is the red high performance lithium complex grease which is best for lubrication of plastic gears, universal joints and driveshaft bone pins/blades and diff output interfaces. Suitable for a higher temperature than the multi purpose grease. Next up is the silicone ball diff grease, for use on the main balls of a diff. Stable and consistent for many runs, it is made from 100% pure silicone. The multi purpose lithium grease is a general purpose lower cost lithium grease, suitable for plastic gears, universal joints and metal interfaces. Finally there is the molybdenum or better known as moly grease, mainly used for thrust races in ball diffs but also good for metal gears and CVD’s for its high loading properties. Not to be used on plastics.
