| Pro-Line Axis clear body for Typhon 6S Posted: 22 Jul 2021 12:57 PM PDT From Pro-Line comes this Axis Clear Body for the Typhon 6S. Designed with the latest in CAD technology, the Axis features a super low-slung design with sharp lines throughout giving it an unmistakable look on the track or at your favourite bash spot. The Axis is a cab-forward design that provides enhanced steering response while the small side fins balance out the rear of the car with the ideal side-bite. The rear of the Axis body has the right amount of clearance for the motor and electronics and fits the chassis and bulkhead shape of your buggy perfectly.

| Pro-Line Convict 1/8th buggy race tire Posted: 22 Jul 2021 12:44 PM PDT Introducing the all-new Convict 1:8 Buggy race tire that represents Pro-Line’s next-generation version of the World Champion Fugitive tire. The Fugitive was developed to be the longest-lasting race tire ever produced and it proved that by winning the World Championship in the harshest condition while still having tread leftover. But for most racetracks and in most conditions, you just don’t need that much tread. Enter the new Convict, a lightweight and more versatile version of the popular Fugitive. Made from Pro-Line’s latest generation carcass shape for improved bump handling and features smaller and more spaced-out tread, so it has the speed for qualifying while still having the right amount of tread to last long main events. Strategically placed small connecting bars improve the stability of the tire tread, which is especially important when used in softer compounds.

| Pro-Line 1972 Ford Pinto clear body Posted: 22 Jul 2021 12:12 PM PDT Pro-Line have introduced the first subcompact car that Ford ever produced that went on to become an iconic Pro Stock car from the ’70s in full-size racing, the 1972 Ford Pinto. To make the Pinto as scale as possible relative to Pro-Line’s other Drag Bodies, Pro-Line is launching a new subcompact drag class using the Bandit, AE SR10, or other 11.25″ wheelbase 2wd Buggies fitted with drag racing wheels and tires. This new size opens the door to bring new people into the world of drag racing using a chassis platform that many people already own. All the iconic details from the original 1972 Pinto have been faithfully recreated in 1/10 size that looks incredible with big drag tires. The front end of the body features massive undercut details including the classic hexagon-shaped headlight bezel just like the full-size car, which is only made possible with Pro-Line’s proprietary moulding technology. The body comes clear giving you the option to paint the body however you desire.

| BRCA 1/8 Circuit Halifax Rd3 – Report Posted: 22 Jul 2021 01:55 AM PDT The newly resurfaced Halifax circuit hosted round 3 of the BRCA 1/8 Circuit series, the new surface and facilities providing the UK with a circuit up there with the best in Europe thanks to all the hard work of John Russell and club members. Many drivers had arrived before the weekend to test on the new surface with a mixed forecast due, Saturday morning saw downpours resulting in controlled practice being turned into open practice as it began to dry mid-way through the afternoon. Drivers managed to all get a few dry runs in later on and it was usual guys at the front with many different chassis being used in the Nitro class such as Serpent, Capricorn, Shepherd, Mugen, ARC and Xray. The Electric class is still being dominated by Capricorn and Serpent but was good to see Bob Harley running Xray. Around 40 drivers were competing at this event. Race Day began dry for the practice round but unfortunately there was another downpour with most drivers sitting out the first couple of rounds. Only Mark Green and Rob Mckenna ran in round one while the track was completely wet, by round two it was slightly better with Neil Wallace venturing out in Electric and Rob Mckenna went quickest in the nitro class from Jack Brann both running Mugen chassis. Round three the track was damp and majority of the drivers went out and the times were falling, Alex Thurston, Andrew Hastings and Karl Dransfield topped the times. In Electric it was Michael Walton, Bob Harley and Kieran Adamson in the top 3. So it came to the final round with conditions almost fully dry and no room for mistake as we use FTD qualifying, in Electric the order stayed pretty much the same with Michael, Kieran and Bob Harley the top 3. Heat two it was Steve Davis setting the pace from Jon Withington and Ralph Crampton all on 15 laps, Jon Melton the clear winner of heat 3 as others made mistakes in the slightly slippery conditions. In heat 4 the pace was much quicker with 17 laps Niall Cochran, John Carr with Rob Scott and Steve Smith doing enough to also book places in the A-final. In the top heat Alex secured FTD from Karl, Tim Wood took third with Andrew Hastings, Mark Green and David Spashett also doing enough to claim A-final spots. In the Electric finals Michael Walton (Serpent) dominated the three legs with Bob Harley chasing (Xray) and Lee Henson taking a well-deserved third (Capricorn). The 30 minute A-final was lead off by Alex Thurston with Karl Dransfield in second for the opening minutes, Tim Wood and Andrew Hastings were to come through while Mark Green did the best he could using his wet car. Alex was able to drive consistently keeping out of trouble to take the win for Capricorn a lap in front of Tim (Shepherd) and Andy (Mugen), unfortunately Tim was to lose his second after scrutineering promoting Andy H up to second and Mark Green third. We are off to Wombwell near Barnsley for round 4 24/25th July see you there. In the C final Rob Mckenna (Mugen) won by 2 laps from Criag Illingworth and newcomer Aadil Mughai took third. The B final was a race of attrition, Jon Withington (Xray) was left out on his own and able to take the win by some 5 laps as others had problems, Ralph Crampton (Shepherd) took a fine second as he settles back into racing and Jack Brann took third having shown good pace but had some issues later on in the race.
