Hudy plastic setup board decals

New from Hudy are updated plastic setup board decals for their recently introduced lightweight setup boards. The all-new series is made from tough plastic and provides a smooth, liquid-resistant surface for quick and easy track-width check and adjustment. They feature accurate, clear markings in a 1mm grid for convenient suspension geometry adjustment. The setup decal is also great for ride height checking as it is less sticky than the set-up board itself which allows for more accurate ride height adjustment of off-road cars. The decals are available for all of the five new lightweight setup boards.

Smokem Racing XQ1/10 camber link shim set

Smokem Racing have introduced their new carbon fibre camber link shim set for the Xpress XQ1 and XQ10 kits. Made from 100 percent carbon fibre, their clever design allows racers to adjust the inner camber link position on the Xpress Execute chassis with ease. No longer is there a need to completely remove the upper link brace, add or remove spacers, then try to reassemble everything without dropping any spacers. With the shims racers simply loosen the screws, remove or add shims as needed, then retighten the screws. The set comes complete with four shims in 1.0mm thickness and four shims in 2.0mm thickness and it also fits the FT1 and XM1.

T-Works 5mm allen wrench

T-Works have announced the release of their new 5mm allen wrench that allows for effortless building, adjustment and maintenance of pivot ball suspensions. The shouldered design ensures that the hex wrench only contacts the pivot ball nut but not the actual pivot ball underneath, providing protection for the suspension balls that are often made of delicate aluminium, ensuring smooth suspension movement. The tool uses T-Works’ lightweight aluminium handle and it is suitable for off-road and on-road pivot ball suspensions alike.

Pro-Line 1972 Plymouth Barracuda body shell

Made for drag racing converted 2WD short course trucks is Pro-Line’s forthcoming new 1972 Plymouth Barracuda body shell.

It includes an extensive decal sheet with Hemi quarter-panel livery graphics and optional add-on spoiler. To create the most scale look possible, the body is designed with a narrower track width than a traditional SC body. It is a direct fit on the Team Associated DR10, but drag racing converted Traxxas 2WD Slash trucks will require some modifications to fit correctly.
