New in the Pits – Red Workshop & JTPRC

RedWorkshop-1

Being used by the Team Associated B team here in Japan, the Factory team using a pre production unit directly from the factory, the Red Workshop Low Rider transmission is a 3 gear low profile transmission for the Associated B5M. 3d printed, it comes as a set which includes the gearbox case, motor plate, chassis brace and the rear uprights. The set is ideal for high grip surfaces such as carpet and astro due to its low centre of gravity and reversed motor position, which offers improvements over a 4 gear version. The rear uprights give the car a higher rear roll centre which further improves the handling characteristics. Available directly from Red Workshop.

Mon-JTPParts

New from Jared Tebo’s own JTPRC product line are these new carbon parts for the Kyosho range of EP buggies. Being used by the American to TQ the 2wd World Championships in Japan on his RZ6, first up is the updated front shock tower for the RB6 which has an additional brace for improved strength, while retaining the same mounting holes of the previous iteration which are higher than the kit part. The rear shock tower, for the ZX6 has the same shock holes as the stock part but the wing mount is higher than stock. Finally there is a chassis mounted stiffening brace for the 4wd vehicle and a 3mm thick battery brace. The towers are made from 4mm thick carbon fibre while the stiffener has been made from 5mm thick carbon plate. Available after the Worlds.
