ST Racing Concepts have released new CNC machined delrin rod ends for the Traxxas Mini Slash and Mini E-Revo. Made with light weight anodized aluminium centers, these push-rods greatly reduces the flex in the push-rod suspension and also adds great looks, matching up perfectly with the line of option parts for the Mini E-Revo and Mini Slash. Sold in pairs and available in blue, red and silver.

Serpent has announced that they have developed the first purpose made 1/8 scale electric on road car. Based on the highly successful Serpent 966 platform, sharing its main components, but the center section is completely different and is reserved for the electric components. It features a purpose designed nylon bracket / holder for all components, such as the 2 pairs of saddle packs, the speedo and the receiver. The large high power brushless motor is securely mounted on a sturdy aluminium motor plate between the rear 2-speed bracket and the aluminum radio plate support and all elements have been positioned in such a way that an optimal weight balance of the car is maintained. The release date is expected to be mid December 2009. Serpent will also offer a conversion set, to change your 960 or 966 into a full blown electric racer.
