2007 PN Racing Mini-Z World Cup U.S. Southern Regional

On August 4-5, 2007, AtomicMods.com will have the great honor of hosting the U.S. Southern Regional of the very popular PN Racing Mini-Z World Cup. The PN Racing World Cup is the most prestigious organized Mini-Z event in the world today and is also the measure by which most drivers compare to each other on a global scale.  We are taking registrations online.

Three different titles will be up for grabs to anyone who chooses to enter this event at AtomicMods.com very own test track. The 3 categories to be run will be Stock Mini-Z, Modified Mini-Z and Open Formula 1. In stock and modified Mini-Z, both 2WD and AWD models will be allowed. In addition, each entrant to a category will receive a “hand-out motor” which will keep things even as everyone will run the same brand and motor type in their cars.  Read More...

Cristian's Corner

This month I’ll be letting you in on one of my speed secrets. Though common in larger scales, not many people work on (or know how to work on) their differentials when they first get them. It is very crucial that a diff is adjusted and built properly to get the most performance out of your car. I've written a step-by-step tutorial on how to do this the right way, with the right parts.

It isn't hard to do the modifications and the rewards are incredible! Installing ceramic bearings and sanding the differential rings are straightforward tasks that will make your differential feel as smooth and silky as can be. With smoother differential action, your car will be a lot easier to drive and this will allow you to turn faster, more consistent laps at your local track.  Read more...

New!  Team Losi Mini-Slider RTR

The new Mini-Slider from Team Losi is an amazing detailed scale model of a full scale dirt oval sprint car. Featuring a longer chassis than the Mini-T or Mini-Baja, the Mini-Slider is designed with unique handling characteristics while sharing many performance and upgradeability features from other Losi Minis. The 4-piece body with headers, street tires, chromed wheels and realistic roll cage configuration all add to the look that parallels the real thing. There is no other vehicle quite like it on the market today. The Mini-Slider comes completely ready-to-run with the Losi DSM radio system for crystal and interference free precision-control at all times.  Read More...

As always, there is a ton of new stuff on the site. 

To start, we've added these 1:28 scale SSG Set-Up Boards in four colors.  We'll add some sweet new set-up tools to go with them soon. 

Don't go to the site without visiting the ever-expanding Losi Micro-T section.  We have been adding Micro-T parts almost daily, including the new Li-Po battery packs.

The new Losi Micro-Baja will be in stock very soon.  It is a baja-style RTR that shares a platform with the now-infamous Micro-T.  We've had a lot of feedback thus far, so get your pre-order in ASAP!

Shipping Countdown

If you haven't been to the site in awhile (or just plain haven't noticed), we have added a unique feature to the homepage, the Shipping Countdown. When you first happen upon it, it appears to be a timer. Don't worry. You need not run for cover. The Shipping Countdown is counting down the hours, minutes, and seconds until the shipping cutoff time. You have this amount of time to place your order and have it shipped the very same day via UPS. At 2:00 PM CST, the timer starts over based on the next cutoff.  As with anything else, there is some fine print involved.
