Fenix have introduced the new Classic Team Lotus 49 body shell for their Classique formula pan car kit. A replica of the iconic Lotus 49, the fully licensed body shell is of a multi-piece design in order to create a race-worthy yet scale replica of the legendary Lotus F1 car. Included comes a detailed decal sheet that helps to recreate the 1967 and 1968 season cars and the body is available separately to as part of the Classique kit line up.
Fenix have introduced their new Mistral 2-0 1/10th scale formula car kit. A radical departure from the current formula car design the Mistral 2-0 is the first kit to utilise a V-link, better known as quad-link design rear suspension. The rear V-links allow to adjust the chassis’ roll centre for improved overall traction and better adjustability to a variety of track conditions. Also up front Fenix decided to go a different route with the design allowing to use static or dynamic caster adjustments for a more aggressive steering. The kit will become available with a ball or gear differential, allowing to pre-set the car for low or high grip conditions.
Fenix have announced the launch of new 70T and 72T 64 pitch main gears for the Xray pan car gear differential. The machined spur gears are a direct fit, they offer high precision and come with engraved size markings for easy identification.

Fenix have introduced a set of aluminium velocity stacks for their Classique formula car kit.

Included in the set is lightweight mounting hardware, making the parts a direct fit.
Coming from Fenix and made for the Xray X1 1/10th scale formula chassis are several new option parts.

Coming from Fenix Racing and made for the Team Associated TC7.2 touring car is the new Flexy’n’sexy aluminium chassis. Just 84mm wide and weighing in at 82g the chassis was developed to generate less flex than a conventional carbon fibre chassis, yet offering more twist than a full-face aluminium item, resulting in just about the right flex for medium to high-bite racing conditions. The main plate is machined from high-quality aluminium and it features machined silver edge details and a dark surface coating.
