Rêve D 6mm high traction spring retainer

Rêve D have introduced the long-awaited 6mm version high traction spring retainer, to add a further option to what was already available. By increasing the spring position you positively induce chassis roll and improve side grip without compromising traction performance. A thoroughly lightweight design, it not only improves suspension performance by reducing unsprung load, but also looks great. The cups are machined from high-quality aluminium, they sport a black surface finish, machined silver edge details and white laser-engraved markings.

Bruno Coelho wins at XRS Slovakia Rd1

The first round of the popular XRS Slovakia race series was held last Saturday at the Hudy Arena in Trencin. Unfortunately, due to local Covid-19 restrictions the entry count had to be limited to 50 drivers. So as expected, the race sold out in very short time, proving the popularity of the series, even in a complicated time like this. The race was run in 5 classes, with 3 on-road classes. Touring car modified, stock (with Hobbywing spec hand-out motors) as well as Formula. In the modified class, Bruno Coelho took the TQ position after the 3 qualifiers, just in front of Alexander Hagberg, with Oliver Havranek in the 3rd spot. Bruno managed to win the race as well, after some really close fights in the finals. Alex and Bruno were separated by less than 1 second in all of the finals, both drivers using the brand new T4 2021 cars.
