Cyclone TC, Cyclone S
Beautifully machined aluminum rear uprights for the Cyclone TC and Cyclone series touring car chassis are more than an aesthetical attribute. These uprights are stronger and feel more precise on the track. Anodized purple for that factory look you crave.

Olly Jefferies took FTD and a dominating win in the A final to take round four of the BTCC
In an effort to get some track time in preparation for the forthcoming BRCA touring car national a number of Associated team drivers entered round four the Schumacher BTCC at the superb Cotswolds track.
Heading the field away was Olly Jefferies. Olly’s TC5 looked dominant from the off as he set fastest time in all three rounds of qualifying. Also trying modified and enjoying himself was Dave Ward. Dave races Pro Stock at nationals for the team but just wanted to stretch his legs a little with a quick motor, Dave eventually lining up third in the B final.
Zak Smith, Cameron McDonald and Tom jefferies were aiming to get some more performance out of the TC5 in Pro Stock spec; all three drivers struggled a little as they chased the constantly warming track.
In the modified A final Olly continued his domination in to the finals taking two straight wins ahead of the Tamiya pairing of Chris Kerswell and Glen Doman, but more importantly Olly was able log some more data which he hopes to put to good use in a few weeks time when drivers head for Cotswolds and the BRCA national.

Race Report by Alexander Hagberg
The Nordic European Championships were held at the beautiful Väst-8 facility in Gothenburg, Sweden.
I arrived at the track on Wednesday before the race to run in new engines and fine tune my starting setup. The car felt good from the start and I went faster as traction gradually increased.
In qualifying I could win all 4 rounds easily with an overall TQ time of 4 seconds in front of Mugen driver Mikael Fransson. My TQ run was the quickest ever on this track and I also set a new lap record of 14.95.
Norwegian XRAY driver Adrian Berntsen showed a good pace and was able to qualify 3rd overall.
For the final the weather was very unpredictable and the first 20 minutes was run on a wet track. However after consultation with my mechanic we decided in the last minutes before the start which wet tire to use, and the choice proved to be the right one since I had a lot more traction than the competition.

The new RB exhaust cooler, as its name suggests, makes the exhaust pressure cooler in order to prevent the fuel and fuel tank getting hot and losing its shape. The fuel is cooler and so allow better performance. Its biggest advantage is that the fuel consumption will drop. The exhaust cooler has a very nice finish with its orange anodizing and great RB engraving and is delivered with nylon holder, durite holder, silicon tube dust protections.
