To celebrate the huge success of the servo at the recent ISTC World Championships in Italy, including Bruno Coelho’s successful title defence, BrunoRC has given its BR1-X4 servo a restyle. Launched 1 year ago to coincide with the release of Xray’s new X4 platform, the servo, which is specifically developed to directly fit the X4, statistically was one of the most used servos during the World Championship, being the top choice 16% of the time. This is even more impressive considering that this model only fits on the X4. And again more impressive when looking at the XRAY drivers, 60% of these have chosen BR1 X4. The new BR1 X4, in addition to presenting itself in a celebratory packaging for the 4X World Champion titles, displays a new graphic, with 4 lasered stars on the product that commemorates not only the 4 World Titles won by these great drivers in Gubbio, but also the 4 World titles of Coelho himself.

JConcepts continues its release of new officially licensed bodies for the iconic BIGFOOT monster truck with the addition of the ‘Racer’ and the ‘Nation’. One of the more famous schemes produced in the early 2000’s is BIGFOOT Nation, and it featured a radical departure in design from those in the past. The all-one-color design appeared in many shows around the country and always performed well in front of spectators. The key part of the design, less is more, a simple colour palette combined with decals give fans a BIGFOOT that would thrive in popular motorcycle culture. With BIGFOOT Racer, most fans recognise the Racer Stripe scheme as the moment BIGFOOT upped the ante in design, safety, and competition handling. The addition of the yellow and red stripes said it all back in 1990, and it seems, every incarnation of The Original Monster Truck is compared to the Racer Stripe. During the 2015 racing season, top driver Dan Runte was topped off with the Racer scheme for one of the largest events of the year at Charlotte Motor Speedway at the Back-to-School Monster Truck Bash.
