O.S. Speed R2103 3.5cc nitro on-road engine

O.S. Engines have introduced their new Speed R2103 3.5cc nitro on-road engine. Developed with the forthcoming 2017 IFMAR World Championship in mind, the power plant features a newly designed crankshaft and a new piston and liner. Compared to the R2102 engine the R2103 will offer more low to mid-range torque and this is why the engine comes with a standard steel main bearing as these are meant to further improve torque characteristics.

Yokomo YD-2S Plus RWD drift kit

Yokomo have introduced the YD-2S Plus, the latest addition to the popular YD-2 series of drift cars. Based off of the standard YD-2 the 2S Plus will feature a redesigned motor and transmission section with the motor being mounted in a high, rearward facing position for improved traction especially on very slippery surfaces. The chassis is of a new design, taken over from 1/10th buggies, with a carbon fibre main plate and composite side rails, doing away with the common top deck. The construction will result in improved steering control and optimised dynamic weight distribution. The kit will utilise shorty battery packs only and it will hit stores at about mid to end of September.
