SWorkz S12-2 gearbox mount & rear lower arm holder

Posted: 01 Nov 2020 11:58 PM PST

Two new option parts for the SWorkz S12-2 with a new aluminium gearbox mount and brass rear lower arm holder. The gearbox support mount is a strong alloy part connecting the chassis and gearbox and will reduce the flex and twist at the rear chassis meaning the rear suspension has less grip, especially useful for high grip carpet tracks. The rear lower arm holder (RF) is made with high quality brass and weighs 15g. Built exactly the same size and shape as the stock rear lower arm holder, it can balance the rear chassis weight distribution of the S12-2 buggy.

Victory for Max Kuenning at 2020 Halloween Classic

Posted: 01 Nov 2020 11:11 PM PST

The Halloween Classic 2020, hosted by NORCAR at the Gate in Brunswick, Ohio, was the kickoff event to the 2020 carpet season. Limited to a total of 40 drivers due to local state guidelines, the race was sold out with RC racers eager to get out and start racing after many months of quarantine. The track is a permanent CRC Black Carpet track with a subfloor underneath it for a super smooth racing surface while the layout was technical and had high traction. Factory RC America/Xray team driver Max Kuenning was able to reset TQ in every qualifier of the stock class with the all new X12’21. In the final he was able to lead from tone to tone to bring home the win ahead of fellow Xray driver Fabio Evangelista in 2nd and John Dickson (Awesomatix) in 3rd.
