Team Associated have released these new RC18T foam tires that have a 4mm larger wheel diameter than their predecessors. The larger wheel gives the best of both worlds for foam tire racing, a reduced sidewall height while keeping the correct tire outer diameter. The reduced sidewall results in improved steering consistency through the corners while maintaining forward traction. Racers no longer need to ‘true’ the foam tire down to an incorrect outer diameter just to achieve less foam on the sidewall. Associated have also released a range of nine new 48-pitch pinion gears from 27T–35T to enlarge your gearing options. More teeth equals more top end speed.

Tamiya have released details of the follow up to their ultra successful F103 chassis, with the release of the F104 Pro. Following the theme seen in HPI’s launch of the Formula Ten, the F104 pro, has an ultra realistic body shell and front and rear wings, and it too is based on last years F1 cars. It is of course a rear wheel drive, with drive direct from the motor and has the battery pack mounted along the centre line of the chassis and the whole layout seems very compact. The car features a carbon upper deck and rear shaft and has lots of blue anodized TRF performance parts as standard, including the car’s centrally mounted shock absorber. Another great looking entry into this class.

Shepherd Micro Racing have announced that their Hauler Bag has just arrived. Ready to carry your RC vehicle it has plenty of room for tools, tyres, engines and other equipment. The hauler features four small boxes and one large box that are made of special material for good durability and sport high quality plastic handles allowing easy access to your equipment. The small boxes are split by a separator, that can be removed to create one big compartment. Several elastic rings in the top compartment allow a nice organization of your tools, while two small pockets attached to the lid offer some extra space. There are four extra pockets on the outside that offer additional space to store equipment like a setup board or other items. Three extra smooth trolley wheels and a telescopic aluminium handle make the transportation very easy and the embroidered Shepherd Ram Head on the back and the Shepherd Micro Racing Logo on the front finish off the look.
