Antix by LRP Oils

LRP has released a new range of nitro racing specific oils under the branding Antix by LRP. Coming in a 60ml bottle, Hi-Flow Air Filter Oil will ensure you have a well oiled air filter, essential for the best possible engine protection and long engine life. The air filter oil achieves this through its high quality ingredients and the blue colouring makes checking the complete air filter lubrication especially easy. ANTIX by LRP After-Run Oil prevents oxidation of internal engine parts caused by the inevitable fuel and exhaust residues inside the engine after running, resulting in reduced performance and shortened engine life. Completing the initial range of oils is the 25ml bottle of Ball Bearing Oil 2 which is a new improved formulation of their previous high-quality, low-viscosity light-running oil.

Awesomatix A800R – Full Release Details

Having given initial details of its latest touring car offering back in January, Awesomatix has just released the full spec for its A800R with kits currently on their way to its global distribution network. The A800R now features a new damper system which includes a Linear and Progressive damping option. These are also quickly adjustable from the underside of the chassis without sliding the dampers in or out. Another advantage is that the dampening and the spring are entirely separate on the A800R; Changing the damper rate doesn’t affect spring rate anymore. The car features a super short chassis to reduce chassis rub to increase corner speed. New suspension armswere needed to keep the same wheelbase in combination with the shorter chassis. Additionally, they have angled the lower bumper to reduce chassis rub under braking action, while adding a new upper bumper plate which is an active part of front flex. With the new damper design comes a new bulkhead design and upper arm holders for improved geometry. Awesomatix include the all new ST112 Centering Screws (same as for D2 dampers mounts) which ensure a perfect and straight build to key the dampers and bulkheads to the lower chassis.
