Back in February we showed you some CAD images of the new optional chassis plate made by Kawahara for the Mugen MRX4-R. This 5mm chassis plate is now available for sale and, similar to the optional Serpent chassis plates, features carbon inserts to enable you to stiffen or soften up the chassis plate. Furthermore the chassis comes with 3 different weights of 10, 18 and 26 grams to allow you to meet minimum weight requirements while for perfect setup it also comes with front and rear setting blocks that fit into the corresponding holes in the chassis.

Dutch company Corally have released some new tuning parts for the Corally RDX Phi, while some will also work with their older touring cars as well. First up we have this newly designed front spool made from duralunimium as well as a new front one way axle, also made from the same material. Also newly released for the Phi is a full titanium screw set that comes in a handy comparmental clear plastic box and finally there is a new set of shock springs in 6 different hardnesses and all using the same black colour for some added confusion.

Xray have updated their site with a large number of new optionals and tuning parts for their 200mm racer, the NT1.

We wrote about some newly released products from German brand Orcan only last week, and now they have released 2 more products,exhaust systems to be exact. Manufactured by German company Mielke, the first exhaust system you see above is for .12 on road motors and has been designed to work best with Novarossi based engines, enhancing engine durability and performance. The second exhaust system is suitable for 3.5cc buggy motors and provides the same benefits as the smaller system with both exhausts featuring the Mielke SNAP technology and are both EFRA approved.

Serpent have released this carbon filler plate for use with their new LCG chassis plate that we showed you a while ago. The plate comes with the fastening material to fix it to the chassis and is suitable for mounting in the front of both the SPP chassis as a spare and the latest LCG machined chassis as an optional. What it does is, when in place it stiffens up the front of the chassis, which of course affects the cars handling dramatically.

Sirio have released their new power clutch set that is suitable for use with the Xray NT1 and the Kyosho RRR range of 1/10th scale cars. The bell housing (above) is sold as part of the set and features cooling fins that allow the temperature of the clutch to stay low without the removal of material which could compromise strength, and reduce clutch shoe contact area. The bell housing is also available seperately and doesn’t come supplied with pinion gears, those that come with the Xray and Kyosho will fit.
