Team Bomber have added two additions to their line up of HQ S-line side springs with the release of new pink and brown versions. The pink version is now the hardest spring in this range, with the brown the softest. HQ side springs are best suited for a wide range of popular carpets, high-grip road surfaces and conditions where a solid diff is used. The result of a close cooperation with a Japanese spring manufacturer with testing and technical capabilities they found that the taper of the springs helps reduce on power traction loss during cornering when using a differential. Made with high quality materials, the number of winds of each spring and all their dimensions have been carefully checked to ensure consistency and the best end product.

MXLR noted that there are a few 1/10 TC setup systems out there which have the incorrect caster scale engraved on them. If the scale is too narrow, its one of the incorrect versions, and your caster setting isn’t actually the number it displays. With these MXLR Caster correction stickers you are able to fix your caster scales without the need to buy a whole new system. They are precisely printed and cut for a perfect fit to the setup system. As a small extra, they added FL, FR and RL, RR marks on the stickers to increase the consistency of your setup procedure by using the same setup system part always in the same spot. Two versions for different Setup Systems are available, for Hudy 1/10 TC Alloy System and for the G-Force & SkyRC 1/10 TC Alloy System.

Coming from Italian brand Pirani RC is this 4mm carbon fibre front body mount stiffener. It can be fixed in both front bumper and front body post of three different car brand, Shepherd Velox, Infinity IF18 and Mugen Seiki MRX-6 and newer models. The stiffener makes the body post and the bumper more difficult to bend so the front body is more flat to the ground.
From T-Works for the Yokomo BD10, is this 6mm bearing wheel hub axle set. Available in standard and +1mm offset they help improve traction by joining the wheel hub directly to the wheel axle. This setup requires a smaller bearing on the outside on the wheel hub to accommodate the new axle. The set includes the hubs, spacers, bearings and all parts to convert two axles.

Two new items from Exotek for the Drag Slash and Slash Street Eliminator, the first being this heavy duty 4mm thick carbon fibre front shock tower. Much stiffer for more stable high speed handling, it uses the stock shocks and body mounts. It has optional shock mounting holes for more tuning options but requires removal of the stock body mount. Next up is their heavy duty hardened steel complete CVD axle sets and diff cups. Reduced parts count and all steel construction insures reliable racing without fear of deforming or popping out the stock plastic axle sets. The new diff cups uses 2 set screws instead of the straight pin to remove all of the slop and reduces vibrations.
