Not only does R2Hobbies now have steering cranks available for the R31 chassis. Eagle Racing has released their own version in Eagle Racing gold and blue.

Eagle Racing has been on a roll for releasing aluminum hop up parts for the R31 chassis. Eagle had just released the front suspension uprades in alloy. Now you can purchase the C-hubs separately in either 10 degrees or 13 degrees. Available in Eagle Racing blue or gold color.

13 degrees C-hubs.

Still in its testing stages but getting good reviews from test drivers. 

I want to give a BIG THANKS to all my friends and viewers who check in from time to time., couldn't do this without ya'll!! This year was a good year for the  NOR-EAST area drifters. 2012 can only get better and bigger. 
Look for a "flashback of 2011" post soon...
HAPPY HOLIDAYS.

Came across some videos and I wanted to share.

   WARU 99.2

Eagle Racing has done it again. They have released a 51mm universal axle for the R31 front suspension chassis. These are 2.5mm longer than the stock size universals. The longer axle should help with the chatter some folks were getting at full lock with the original shafts.

This past weekend House of Dorifto opened their doors to the indoor drift track located in New Rochelle, NY. Hours of operation are Sundays:  8am - 8pm.
Wednesday: 4pm - 11pm.
$20.oo dollars lets you slide all day.
Thanks to all that made opening day a nice event.

RC926 invented the first Hybrid drift Twin Springs damper setup where you can have different upper and lower setting on your dampers with a dividing cylindric aluminum shock spring seat.
Well RC926 has improved on there invention. They have made a wider diameter set of springs. Still with the same function of dividing the shock with different shock setting but now with a larger diameter. Their originals were 1.2mm, then 1.3mm was made. The new ones are 1.4mm.
The different thickness of springs can be purchased separately or as a set. They are available in 5 different spring rates:
ultra soft = white
super soft = blue
soft = yellow
medium = red
medium hard = black
