Sworkz S35-GT3.0 Factory Team Edition 1:8 GT
World Champion 1:8 GT chassis manufacturer Sworkz has unveiled their latest offering for the category with the GT3.0 Factory Team Edition in both nitro and electric variants. Winners of the 2020 World Championship in the United States and the 2023 Electric GT World Cup in Australia, both in the hands of Joern Neumann, the GT3.0 Factory Team Edition was a special production for the recent 2025 IFMAR GT World Championships that targeted creating a faster, lighter and easier driving performance car. Based on a weight-optimised, silver anodised chassis plate made of high-strength T7075 aluminium, the car has the latest front flat bumper design. Mounted to that are high quality aluminium bulk heads that can change diff positions. Lay Down Shock Tower System has a new suspension geometry to lay-down the shock positions. The kit includes the S35-GT2.2 front upper and lower ultra hard material arms as well as the latest S35-4 EVO rear lower ABS arms (ultra hard material) that improves the S35-GT3.0 FTE’s cornering speeds. It also features a direct response steering servo saver with a new Ackerman system. On the nitro version a new pipe extension holder spring plate that allows the pipe to sit closer to the body shell. The 2-speed transmission has also been completely revised on the S35-GT2.2 platform that significantly improved compared to its predecessor. The kit comes standard with a new Sworkz Tornado GT 4-Shoes Clutch and Tornado GT 4-Shoes Aluminium Clutch Bell to get the maximum power from the engine to the transmission. The HET differentials developed by Sworkz are also included with 13T pinion and 45T crowns in the kit. The wishbone brackets, included with durable square inserts, allow the axle geometry to be adapted to any track layout. The front and rear CVD wishbones are made of a newly developed composite material. The side pans have also been redesigned. New design rear knuckles plates made from composite materials combined with carbon plates that offer the possibility for different setups.
