Rêve D rear hub carrier for RWD drift

Rêve D have introduced their new aluminium rear hub carrier for RWD drift which can be set according to the rear weight of your machine. The new optional part enables you to adjust the roll centre by oﬀering two outer suspension pin positions, making it now possible to ﬁnd the best set-up according to the rear weight of the machine. The hub carrier body has an innovative grooved design that gives it both rigidity and suppleness in the right places, dramatically improving traction and performance. By making the upper arm mounting plate a two-piece structure with optimised link positions, it is possible to ﬁne-tune the roll centre even further and it enables the use of future optional development parts.

Fenix Racing Classique 2 F1 chassis

Fenix Racing have introduce the Classique 2, a follow up to their chassis designed specifically for the brand’s Classique line of F1 bodyshells. The biggest improvement over its predecessor is the ability to use the most popular LiPos, from Super Shorty, to Shorty to LCG Shorty. Another improvement is now a simpler rear end, where the torsion setting is handled via a single setup screw, replacing the damper and springs system used on the previous version. The rear end features a narrower track, for a better grip, while the typical 60’s short wheelbase is retained. Of course, Classique 2 is fully compatible to the existing Fenix Classique bodies. The Classique 2 and F1-70 are meant to be the backbone for the Fenix Collectors Series, which us planned to be released later this year.
