3Racing Now Imports The Fujin 211GO 1/10 M-Chassis RC Car

Geeks. This hobby is full of them. I know this. I can admit that I am geeky when it comes to RC. Some people in this hobby can't admit the fact that they are geeks. Lets make a checklist from the ground up.
1. Your sneakers are laced up really tight.
2. You are wearing jean shorts.
3. You wear any shorts with a long sleeved shirt or jacket.
4. You cellphone is clipped to your belt.
5. You have a cellphone holder on your belt.
6. You are wearing a necklace.
7. You have a goatee.
8. You are wearing a hat indoors.

Now that we have established this lets move on to this car. It looks awesome. It's a mini. I want one. Check it out.
Our first car called 211GO, a 1/10 EP 4WD RC Car M-Chassis, is the narrowest chassis of M-class cars in the world. It's built with graphite main chassis and upper desk, aluminum motor mount and 2 drive belts. The thickness of main chassis is 2.2mm and the upper deck is 2.0mm. To make the twist more balance and exalt the efficiency, it uses a center point as pivot to link up the main chassis and upper deck and let the upper deck connects from front bulkhead to as near as the rear bulkhead.
Overall Length:      300mm
Overall Width:        165mm
Overall Height:       100mm
Ground Clearance: 5mm
Wheelbase:             203-211mm
Tread (F/R):            F147 / R146
Gear Ratio:             1:2.05
Body:                       Not included
Motor:                     540 Motor (Not included)

3Racing does F1

During the off season I suffer from Formula 1 withdrawal. I think about F1 constantly but I know from experience that every season brings new challenges and it is ridiculous to speculate until the new cars hit the track.I wish RC F1 had the same following here in the US that it does in other parts of the world. I have actually figured out a way to increase its popularity. Money. Cold hard cash. If you off large cash prizes people will show up to compete. It has been an unwritten rule in RC racing that large cash prizes bring out the competition. Maybe its time for some real racing promoters to get into the RC scene and make racing fun and cool.

My plans for a snow bash part 2 were dashed with 15 inches of snow. Way too much to RC in.Maybe it will freeze over the weekend and my truck will be able to float on top of it. We'll see.

This F109 seems to be the best F1 car on the market right now. Looking at it now I would have to agree. The price is pretty good too. Check it out.
3RACING is one of the most famous RC optional parts manufacturers in the world. We have over 20 years of experience in the RC industry, that we are extremely familiar with the essential RC racing technologies. Today we like to announce the birth of our complete RC car kit - the ALL-NEW F109 1/10 Formula 1.

Formula 1 is the highest class of car racing in the world. We are very pleased to introduce the new 1/10 scale F1 kit, which is a high quality, durable, and extremely fast car offering the best possible handling at a highly competitive price.

BOTTOM
Tweaking System
The traditional T-Plate design has been given up on the F109. Instead, a special mechanism basing on ball joint is used as the tweaking system to make the chassis more durable and stable. The new rear chassis design deploys a composite of a pair of ball joints and central pivot ball, plus side spring and monoshock as absorber and buffer. The up-and-down rear movement can be controlled entirely through the high capacity central shock.
Motor Mount
The motor mount was built using high quality 6061-T6 aluminum with a very versatile design. The height of the rear wing is also adjustable V it can be adjusted with 3 different degrees of up-and-down movement using axle adaptor 0, 1 and 2. It is fully tunable for meeting the demands of the modern day racing environments.

Weight Centralized
The battery is centrally mounted through a special Quick Change feature, allowing fast and easy battery replacement without the need to struggle through the limited space. As the battery is centrally oriented, weight can be centralized to allow for better control of the car as a whole.
Suspension System
The front suspension system is highly flexible in that camber adjustment is fully allowed. Springs of different stiffness are included in the package so you may fine tune the system as you see fit without the need to shop for alternative shock absorbers from somewhere else.
Chassis
The chassis is built with 2.5mm fiber glass material which is strong and light-weight, and is much less costly when compared with its graphite counterpart. The car was tested with a high speed brushless system and the chassis was found to be of sufficient strength for sustaining the stress and load brought by the brushless horsepower.

3Racing Has a Prototype FWD Sakura

Yup the Sakura FF is real but apparently not for sale. I feel a strong lust for this vehicle. My Christmas kit was either going to be a TA05 or the Sakura Zero S. Now I am thinking about the Xevo Chariot kit and the Diggity Designs XLR8 V2 kit or a Brat. I will probably buy two of these but which two? My TC3 has been hidden in a box for years. I bought it as an unknown chassis on the bay and when I got I was appalled by its ugliness. The previous owner decided to paint much of it silver. I absolutely despise painted chassis. RC cars go through hell and the chassis sees most of it. Paint a chassis and it will remind you of every pebble and slip of the screwdriver it sees. Back to the Sakura FF, I really don't have much to say about this car except it looks rad and i can't get one.
3Racing SAKURA FF Touring Car Chassis (FWD PROTOTYPE)
Four single head drive cars from the early 80's the end of the Kyosho Peugeot 205, Honda CRX times since the start of each period of the first drive car also cited a number of players kind of love. Hong Kong this year also happens to blow a burst of four matches the first drive alone car craze, the situation and the former is a series of different places of course, the emergence of a new car. Tamiya FF-03 PRO chassis and TOP Racing Sabre FD chassis will become regulars on the field. The antecedents SAKURA ZERO competition and reached the Class 3 Racing in Hong Kong market, the company saw the market, but also accelerated the development of a new generation of special-class race car drive four single head.
SAKURA FF Chassis:
Although Hong Kong 3 Racing mourn the loss of the company to face the pace of the first array market, but use this time to collect the various manufacturers on the market four separate issues the first drive for improved car design goals. In particular, the head weight distribution, and the drive gear box center of gravity made many changes. In particular, for example Tamiya FF-03 PRO-driven gear box and spindle center of gravity is too high and so on later. 3 Racing SAKURA FF Kyosho Mantis FF deliberately used as the type of gear layout low center of gravity, and then re-modified form of the gear ratio and small. In order to head higher hardness, but also to spend all of 7075 aluminum alloy material integration. Hydraulic height than SAKURA ZERO change even lower, you can use more types of vehicle Valley. The entire vehicle test use the new gear is also a special material, differential bevel side parallel to spend four Mi-sharing efforts.
Front and rear suspension system and the tail gear box with back SAKURA ZERO identical parts. Their own play SAKURA ZERO of the fans, can share the main part is a very convenient way. Spend a steering system steering system L split into pieces, and the central muon can add different perspective to change the steering geometry. Server location is more a piece of carbon fiber protection board, dismissed the impact damage to the server when the chance. SAKURA FF activities are specially designed battery holder, can be easily able to replace the battery.
I heard Hong Kong 3 Racing 's SAKURA FF Chassis testing has come to an end, now part of some minor improvements and materials can be determined release date. Interested friends to remember to pay attention to 3 Racing site it!

3racing Makes Cheap Parts and Now a Touring Car!

So I have a metric ton of 3racing parts on many of my cars. They're inexpensive and usually shiny aluminum. Nothing to complain about there! Some people claim fitment issues but this is hobby about modeling, if you don't have any skill at fabricating you should take up die cast collecting. Now this company has produced a touring car. To put their unique stamp on it they used pink aluminum components. Yup pink. I cannot comment on the color because I lost a pink car on the TV show Pinks in front of the entire world (at least I was wearing sunglasses). Any how this little puppy won't break a coupler on its charge pipe and embarrass you in front of the world. It will, however, kick butt on any track you set it upon.
