Ultimate Racing Tire Balancer

Ultimate Racing Tire Balancer

Ultimate Racing have released details about their new tire balancer, which works with the wheels of buggies, rally game cars and truggies. After many tests and exchange of opinions with their team drivers, UR came to the conclusion that unbalanced wheels produce unnecessary vibrations to the shock absorber, affecting both traction and stability of the cars while jumping. To take care of this problem they have developed this system to balance wheel weight which works by helping to find the heaviest part of the wheel, and in turn allowing you to balance it through the use of the UR balancing paste which can be applied to the opposite side of the rim.

Exotek Racing have released this genuine titanium 64 grade replacement axle for the Robitronic Scalpel. Weighing in at only 5 grams at almost half the weight of the stock axle, this leightweight yet strong titanium axle helps your handling due to lower rear pod suspension weight, more balanced left side diff action and of course improved acceleration. Also features shortened stub axles (shortened 1mm on each side) for less overhang thus reducing the chance of your axle snagging a track barrier.

CRC Race Cuts TC tires

CRC Race Cuts TC tires

Calandra Racing Concepts have released a high performance, low cost, touring car foam tire for the racing market called Race Cuts, which are a 27 mm wide touring car tire mouted on CRC’s 51 mm dished wheel. This new tire offers a performance based larger diameter wheel (51 mm instead of 49 or 50) with a 27 mm width so its suitable for all the current touring cars and while the rules now allow the wheel to be 53 mm, a rim this large forces a very small side wall making the tire a one or 2 run tire at best. The new TC Race Cuts come trued to 58 mm in diameter and are available in 2 compounds, magenta and a split double purple/magenta.
