PR Racing introduce new S1 platform optionals

Coming from PR Racing and made for the S1 series of off-road vehicles are several updated or new parts. First up is the 2020 S1 front chassis top plate. The bulkhead was optimised and now incorporates a front swaybar mount that allows for easy attachment of the optional 2020 S1 front swaybar set. The front chassis top plate kit is also usable with the V3T and SC201 trucks and the optional anti-roll bar kit includes all needed hardware as well as 1.3mm and 1.4mm wires. While being at optional front swaybar kits, PR Racing also releases a truck compatible kit, again using 1.3mm and 1.4mm wires and including all needed mounting hardware. Last but not least come two new wishbone sets, a front gullwing lower arm set for the PRS1V3 Type R and a ST1 and SC201 compatible full arm set. Both include updated arms that feature anti-roll bar mounting positions.

PR Racing machined 2-hole shock pistons

PR Racing have announced the release of new 2-hole shock pistons for their 1/10th scale off-road shock absorbers. Of a 12.65mm diameter the precision-machined pistons are available as 2×1.8mm or 2×2.0mm hole variants, with the smaller holes being used up front while the 2.0mm pistons are used in the rear. Using the pistons will improve bump handling and jump landing especially on outdoor tracks and the pistons come in four-piece sets of each size.

PR Racing V3FM-R Evo & SB401-R lightweight bodies

PR Racing have introduced new lightweight body shells for the V3FM-R Evo 2WD and SB401-R 4WD buggies. Moulded from high-quality 0.5mm Lexan polycarbonate material the shells are substantially lighter than their standard counter parts for an overall lower centre of gravity and thus less body roll and swifter cornering in high grip track conditions. The bodies come clear, including window masks and decal sheets.

PR Racing S1 V3R Evo 2WD buggy kit

Coming soon from PR Racing is the S1 V3R Ev0 2WD buggy kit. The main focus has been to make the car smoother and easier to drive on track, and this has been achieved with a revised 2.5mm thick -5mm length 7075 aluminium chassis. In addition new insert-type hangers have been introduced, and in conjunction with the chassis design allow for much lower rear roll centre, keeping the car much flatter on track with smoother rotation. New Ackerman geometry, and new CNC rear hubs with longer link positions also improve on track driveability. A new motor mount has been produced to lower the motor 2mm into a recess in the chassis, and makes a particular difference on today’s high grip tracks. In addition to all the geometry and mechanical changes, the V3R Evo has been treated to a new body, designed to look sleek and offer more steering with its much larger forward mounted cabin. The kit comes with a host of optionals such as CNC alloy servo mount, 4 degrees alloy caster blocks, front camber plates, vented slipper plates, a swaybar set and 34T alloy idler gear and it will hit stores in June.

PR Racing S1v3 alloy Ackermann plate set

PR Racing have introduced their new “rear shifted” aluminium Ackermann plate set for the S1v3 platform. Thanks to an optimised steering geometry the steering will feel less aggressive which can be a benefit in several track conditions. The plate offers two different mounting positions for the inner steering link ball studs and it comes including mounting hardware.
