For the Tamiya TC-01 from Yeah Racing comes this ball raced aluminium steering rack. More durable thanks to its construction from 7075 T6 aluminium and more precise due the materials used and the reduction of flex in this area, resulting in the car having a more direct steering feel.

Xray present their new for 2021 X12 Formula chassis, developed with a focus on improving durability, improving adjustability for better performance on a variety of surfaces, and resistance to chassis tweak after impacts. The tweak free design improvements are achieved with a new rear centre pivot mounting system and new pod components. An all-new aluminium centre pivot mounting system improves traction and stability of the car, eliminates tweak issues and provides new adjustment choices to position the pivot point. The one-piece bulkheads achieve maximum durability and eliminate tweak issues after a crash while the graphite rear upper plate has been redesigned to integrate with the new bulkheads to improve durability and to eliminate tweak after a crash. New graphite chassis side braces offer three different installation settings to alter chassis stiffness to match track conditions. To top it all off there is an all new stealth looking black design, with all the aluminium anodised black.

Based on the double World Champion platform SWorkz S35-GT, SWorkz has continued development of their cars and the result is the S35-GT2 and the S35-GT2E. The S35-GT2 is designed as a thoroughbred racing machine for GT Onroad Racing. It has a brand new designed front and rear suspension, while the Ackerman steering geometry was adopted from the 1/8 S35-4 buggy. The 2-speed transmission has also been completely revised on the S35-GT2 platform and significantly improved compared to its predecessor. Sporting a weight-optimised, hard anodised chassis plate made of high-strength T7075 aluminium, the wide layout of the rear axle, developed in numerous tests by their works drivers, is also used on the S35-GT2.
