Pro-Line Super J & Octane drag racing body shells

Pro-Line have introduced their new Super J and Octane drag racing body shells for converted Slash-type short course trucks. Starting with the Super J, PL’s first-ever body dedicated to the ever-growing SC drag racing class, the full-blown Pro-Mod body will transform the Traxxas Slash 2WD into a scale quartermile beast. This retro custom hot-rod style body features a ton of scale details to give any SC drag car a super unique, race-inspired look. The Super J is a convenient 1-piece body design with no assembly necessary. Pro-Line recommend using a 2.2” buggy wheel/tyre combo on the front combined with a 2.2”/3.0” SC wheel/tyre in the rear for the ultimate scale hot-rod stance. However, to create a more scale look, the body is designed with a narrower track width than a traditional SC body and will require some modifications to the 2WD Slash in order to fit correctly. A list of modifications needed to fit the Super J can be found here.

Also new is the Octane body for SC trucks. It transforms short course trucks like the Pro-Line Pro-Fusion SC, Traxxas Slash 2WD or 4×4 as well as the Team Associated SC10 into a 1970’s-style muscle car. Inspired by the No Prep drag racing scene at full-size drag strips around America, the Octane features incredible details like a raised hood scoop, wide stance, and optional rear deck spoiler. The Octane is a direct fit on all popular SC trucks with no modifications to the chassis necessary other than Pro-Line’s extended body mounts. Pro-Line recommend using a 2.2” buggy wheel/tyre combo on the front combined with a 2.2”/3.0” SC wheel/tyre in the rear for a scale hot-rod look.
