Chassis Focus – Renaud Savoya

SavoyaCF

Chassis: Xray XB8
Engine: Orion RS
Tires: Sweep
Radio/Servos: Futaba
Remarks – The Xray factory driver is running the newly released XB8 buggy, using a variation of his standard setup. To deal with the track conditions he has played a bit with the diff oils going 7k-7k-3k, and switched to a 2.5mm front sway bar. He is also using brass weights (15g) on both the front and rear hubs to help settle the car over the bumps. Having raced silver Hexagons, his plan is to try some different tires for the third and final round of qualifying.

After the recent ISTC World Championships in California, Red RC gets ready to switches from electric power to nitro power as well as travel to the other side of the World to bring you coverage of the 10th edition of the IFMAR 1:10 Nitro World Championship. With support from Maxima RC Racing Fuel, T-Work’s Asia, Rapicon Max Power RC Fuel, SMART-Workshop, and Infinity, we are excited to be returning to Huge RC Circuit in Bangkok, Thailand, the track of former ISTC World Champion Suirkan Chaidajsuriya hosting the WC for a second time. In 2014 we got to witness Alexander Hagberg claim his first & Xray’s second World title at this unique (and huge!) indoor track. With 2024 a year that we have already seen two historic World title hat tricks, will we see Infinity’s Tadahiko Sahashi become the first ever driver to defend their 1:10 Nitro title? Our coverage starts on November 19 (Tuesday) and runs through to Saturday’s title deciding 1-hour final. We looking forward to you following along as IFMAR crowns its final World Champion of 2024.
