Infinity IF14 steering blocks, uprights & C-blades Posted: 21 Dec 2017 07:06 AM PST Infinity have released a number of new parts for its IF14 touring car ahead of the 2018 season. Newly designed steering blocks that now include a built in angle stopper are offered in two material options. With a “hard” option to cover a wide range of track conditions, a “super hard” graphite option has also been produced to deal with high grip road surfaces. The super hard blocks are also suitable for creating greater steering response and giving the car a more agile overall set-up. At the rear of the car, newly designed rear uprights have been released to optimise the rear suspension geometry. As with the steering blocks, these are also available in hard and super material to suit varying track conditions. The graphite option is recommended for use on high grip tracks. Completing the trio of new releases for the IF14 are new C-blade protectors. A revised design, they are made from new material to offer greater durability.

Pro-Line X-Maxx dual rate spring assortment Posted: 21 Dec 2017 03:50 AM PST Pro-Line have introduced a dual rate spring assortment for the Traxxas X-Maxx truck. Specifically developed for Traxxas’ popular truck, the spring assortment pack includes a pair each of soft, medium and firm upper and lower springs that can be mixed and matched to give tons of tuning options. The main benefit of using dual rate springs is to have a softer initial combined spring rate for gliding over the small choppy bumps, but then transition to a much firmer rate once the upper spring is collapsed to absorb the big hits. The included spring separator is custom machined from black delrin for smooth sliding action over the shock body and the shoulder is offset so upper spring collapses consistently for proper performance. The upper springs are black and the lower springs are bright Zinc coated for a chrome-like finish. Source: Pro-Line [prolineracing.com] |
