In 2016 it was Dominc Greiner who became World Champion with a flawless drive ahead of then Serpent team-mate Alessio Mazzeo, who gave the local crowd plenty to cheer about, with then reigning 1:8 World Champion Simon Kurzbuch completing the podium for Shepherd just ahead of Bruno Coelho. Since then the track has hosted the 2022 IFMAR ISTC World Championship, Coelho taking the win on that occasion, with the club highly regarded for its strong organisation and presentation of races. The previous two 1:10 Nitro Touring Car World Championships where staged in Thailand, the 2024 race held at Huge RC in Bangkok after original host Costa Rica hit issues surrounding noise. Jilles Groskamp would take a hugely popular victory at the former ISTC World Champion Surikarn Chaidajsuriya owned track, to become only the second driver to win the biggest prize in both Electric and Nitro Touring Car.

Takashima D-13 120° 12.9 Grade Carbon Steel M3 TORX screws

Takashima D-13 has released 120 Degree 12.9 Grade Carbon Steel M3 TORX screws designed to address screw loosening caused by the high flex characteristics of a 1.2mm spring steel chassis. The M3 Torx screws deliver a more secure and durable fastening solution with the multi-contact interface ensuring superior engagement under continuous chassis flex and vibration, effectively reducing preload loss. Compared to traditional hex hardware, the Torx design allows for higher applied torque, enabling stronger tightening force while significantly minimising the risk of stripping. With more even load distribution, it also enhances durability of both screws and tools, maintaining consistent performance even under frequent assembly and disassembly.

MXLR Slow-Mo Damping Grease

MXLR, the brand of reigning 1:12 Spec World Champion Max Machler, has introduced a new range of damping grease called Slow-Mo. The grease’s super smooth and ultra stable viscosity is formulated to give no fade or separation when used on KingPin front ends of 1:12 PanCars, Pro10 or F1. Offered in 10K, 15K, 20K, 25K and 30K colour code options, Slow-Mo grease went through a lot of testing and development to reach a formula with the best consistency, correct stickiness and range between the different available hardness levels. MXLR focused a lot to find the best micro-adhesion that the grease stays in place to provide consistent damping over the full travel range. Thicker grease is used to slow down steering response and overall easier handling while thinner grease gives a more aggressive handling with more response. Slow-Mo Damping Grease comes in a clear 15 gram container which keeps the grease clean and in perfect condition during storage in your RC bags.
