Xpress have released this V2 shock set for use with their Execute XQ10 touring car and FT1 FWD touring car with the short shock conversion kit. These V2 shocks offer an extra 1.5mm of travel over the standard versions, which translates in to more mechanical grip on track.

This forward servo mount by LCG Racing, included in the SFX conversion, is now available separately for the Xray T4 2020. It fits the standard car as well as the SFX conversion and increases the stiffness of the front of the chassis. By decreasing the flex in the front, the car is more direct on corner entry, can provide more corner speed and makes the car easier to handle in medium-high to high grip conditions. The lightweight design of the aluminium part retains its rigidity while the design of the carbon fibre upper plate aims to minimise weight further.

Italian brand Capricorn have developed a new platform, a 1/10th pan car that is essentially a scaled down version of the 1/8th 4wd pan car they already produce. Called the P10 SR, it will run a 200mm standard width with 45mm wide rear tyres and 30mm front. Designed to accept a shorty pack or standard square style battery, you have the ability to run up to 3s. While the rear of the car is fixed and with a straight axle there is little to adjust, up front the flex can be adjusted by loosening or tightening the nuts on the front lower carbon plate for a different feeling if needed.

Arrowmax continue to expand their FWD Medius platform with their latest release for Yokomo BD10.

Other parts included are high quality 2.25mm chassis, 75g brass bumper weight, battery mount holder and necessary screws. The conversion kit will be able to fit both the BD9 and BD10 and is available now.

Rêve D have released a new range of optional aluminium servo case backs in purple, red and silver for their RS-ST servo. A direct replacement for the standard plastic part, these new case backs not only look great but also offer greater heat dissipation and improved rigidity. Additionally for their servos come a set of SPM titanium case screws, which are made of a super lightweight, rigid titanium material not only look great but offer a good weight reduction over the standard steel part.
Team Shepherd have announced a new optional item for the Velox V10 platform in the form of an all-new radio plate stiffener milled from high-quality German carbon fibre. Mounted at the front end it changes the cars flex characteristic which can be helpful under high-traction conditions by taking out some steering. The necessary screws are included and the item is available from now on.

Coming from Team Bomber and made for their TB-AK12 1/12th scale pan car kit are new centre shock springs. Designed for the car’s big bore centre shock and also usable for many other cars utilising the same design, the springs help to fine-tune bump handling and rear traction according to the track conditions. The springs are made of high-quality steel, precision manufactured, and they come in colour-coded hardnesses of soft, medium and medium-hard.
