Trinity now has available the same Li-PRO battery pack that powers its new NOW brushless truggy available for use in other electric vehicles like the Associated RC-18T. The Lithium Polymer technology of the LI-PRO battery pack makes for a longer running battery at a lighter weight then possible with Ni-Cd or Ni-MH batteries. The LI-PRO battery pack comes with a Tamiya style power connector and a separate charging plug for use with balance chargers like the Trinity TRI22004. The pack is 3 cell 11.1 volts, 1350mAh capacity.

Trinity just dropped a huge bombshell by announcing the return of on-road pro Paul Lemieux, horsepower guru Jim Dieter, and the legendary Dirtinator, Brian Kinwald. Brian made his name as one of off-road racing’s all-time greatest drivers while Trinity powered, and his return marks a highly anticipated comeback for the superstar. With multiple national wins, a World Championship title and five consecutive “Readers’ Choice Awards” for favorite driver, Brian is the man to watch in off-road for 2008. Teammate Paul Lemieux, considered by many to be the best on-road racer in the world, brings the heat with a long string of victories that includes the Novak Champs, ROAR Nats, Snowbirds, and the International Indoor Champs. Both drivers will benefit from the inestimable skills and experience of veteran motor man Jim Dieter, who has tuned the winning motors of too many drivers to count and helped develop some of Trinity™s most popular powerplants.
