LRP 4200mah Hyper LCG Graphene 4.1 Modified Shorty

As the battery development is continuing all the time, LRP has released a new shorty pack with 4200mah. Compared to the previous model with 4000mah, the battery is now 4mm longer but still only 18.5mm high. This keeps the center of gravity as low as possible in the car while having more capacity and runtime at the same moment. The battery comes along at around 160g and is a perfect choice for 1/10 scale indoor modified racing (touring car), FWD cars, as well as 2WD and 4WD offroad buggies.

Awesomatix rear ARS steering arm

Awesomatix offers a new designed rear ARS steering arm for their current touring car A800MMX (and older versions including the A700) which also fits into the rear of the A800FX Evo FWD car. A great new tuning option for the famous onroad cars from the russian manufacturer for the indoor season. Read how Awesomatix describes their newest product:

This version is longer compared to the previous AM23-1 Rear Steering Arm. This feature reduces the free play of the rear toe and improves ARS characteristics. The improved characteristics of the ARS helps with better midcorner steering and reduce the risk of snap oversteer during load changes.
We recommend to use 0,5mm less bumpsteer shims, to keep the same ARS action as with AM23-1. This part is a direct replacement for AM23-1

Awesomatix

Part Number: A800-AM23-R
Contains 2 steering arms

Urbain victorious as the MRC Longwy kicks off their famous winter series

Last weekend, the first round of the Longwy Winter Serries took place in the north of France, and the house was fully booked. With an overall turnout of 110 drivers the club was hosting a great event and everybody enjoyed to race in Longwy. In the fastest class of the weekend, Modified, it was MRC Longwy member and Awesomatix factory driver Lucas Urbain who took an impressive win ahead of Mugen Seiki`s Ronald Völker and Yokomo driver Yannic Prümper. Urbain secured the pole position in qualifying and took A2 and A3 after Völker won the first of the triple A-Mains. Ronald Völker and Yannic Prümper took second and third overall at the season opener!

Ehrbar wins Expert Stock

David Ehrbar took his first win in a touring car stock race since he returned to TC racing after his switch to Xray. Ehrbar was able to seal the TQ in qualifying and won the race ahead of current European Champion Olivier Bultynck (Awesomatix) and Manuel Wagner (Xray).

Libar takes the win in the FWD class

In the FWD class, it was ETS frontrunner Jacques Libar who took the overall win in Longwy. He used his Xray car to take TQ honours and he won the second and third A-Main ahead of Xavier Debroye (who won A1) and Florent Jadot.

The next round of the Longwy Winter Series will take place at the weekend of December 11th and the clib is looking forward to another great event!
