Xtreme Aerodynamics She-Rock 1/10 FWD body

Posted: 27 May 2021 01:46 AM PDT

Xtreme Aerodynamics have introduced a new 1/10 FWD class body shell, named the She-Rock. Because of the limited power and the understeer nature of this category, deep CFD analysis have been carried out to maximise corner speed and aero efficiency. Every section has been studied to optimise the global flow, bonnet shape, front spoiler, side skirt and roof details are examples. Extensive testing showed a smooth handling, fast transition and optimal aero balance on mid corner resulting in overall performance improvement and consistency.

Tungsten alloy screws from Inertia Screws

Posted: 27 May 2021 01:30 AM PDT

Inertia’s Tungsten Alloy formula makes for a very durable and extremely heavy screw, weighing twice that of a standard steel screw. This means you’ll have more weight in the most optimum location possible in the car, the chassis. Adding weight this way will result in a better handling car, a car that is more forgiving and easier to drive and will allow a noticeable increase in corner speed. Available in sizes M3x4, 5, 6, 8, 10mm and 4-40 x 1/4 and 3/8”.

FX Engines tease new G501 motor

Posted: 26 May 2021 02:23 PM PDT

More teasers from FX Engines, this time for the G501. Again we have little to no further information to go on, the name would suggest a 5 port engine, while the G could mean that it is specific to the GT class. We will know more soon enough.
