JConcepts 22 5.0 Fin black turnbuckle kit

Posted: 06 Jul 2020 12:05 PM PDT

Following the black colour Fin turnbuckle kit for the TLR 22X-4 4WD buggy, JConcepts have also introduced a set for the TLR 22 5.0 2WD buggy. The base of the design is centred around a 4mm titanium hex size which gradually tapers down into a 3.5mm thread base design which accepts the standard TLR ball-cup configuration. The focus of the styling surrounds the lengthened adjustment hex area and the finned cuts that rotate about the centre. The turnbuckles are lightweight, they are produced with left- and right-hand threads with the left being conveniently marked for easy orientation, and a black colouring gives the stealthiest look in the pits and on the track.

The 2020 Greek 1/8th Nitro GT Championship was held at the Fanatix Racing Track in Athens this past weekend. The race attracted a total of 17 entries and was held in hot summer weather conditions. In qualifying Kostas Sidiropoulos (SWorkz) was able to take the pole position in front of Michalis Xristodoulou (Mugen) and Konstatinos Terlepanis (Serpent). In the 45-minute A-final Sidiropoulos took an early lead showing good pace but nitro newcomer Dimitris Ioannidis (Xray) was able to take advantage of his long stints to take the lead for a couple of laps before retiring with a mechanical failure. From that moment on Sidiropoulos established himself in the lead, lapping the field twice to take the win and with it the 2020 Greek Nitro GT title. Starting from 8th on the grid Konstatinos Agrafiotis (Xray) finished on a popular 2nd place with Konstatinos Terlepanis rounding out the podium.

Posted: 06 Jul 2020 07:02 AM PDT

Phat Bodies from the UK have introduced their new VTCR body shell for 1/10th scale front-wheel drive chassis. The scale-like body has been based on the cars that run in the WTCR and BTCC championships with similar styling and aerodynamics cues. Key features are a double front splitter balanced with a BRCA-legal rear wing for a car that’s fast and easy to drive. The prototype was extensively tested over the last six months by Phat Bodies’ team of test drivers, some pro and and some regular club drivers, ran on everything from tight and grippy indoor carpet tracks to fast and open outdoor tarmac tracks and even in the rain to ensure the body performs in every track condition. The lid is fully BRCA approved, meets the international 125mm roof height and comes in crystal clear Lexan polycarbonate for high quality and durability. Included come vinyl window masks, lights and grille stickers as well as the rear wing.
