HB D8 LW chassis & 5mm FR shock tower

New from Hot Bodies for the D8 buggy is this specially machined lightweight chassis. Starting with a 3mm thick aluminum chassis and strategically milling areas that don’t affect strength, they have dropped some serious weight while maintaining the proper flex in the most critical areas. An overall lighter vehicle results in greater acceleration speeds, stopping speeds and steering input response. You can now also beef up the front of the car with this new 5mm shock tower replacement. Also suitable for the HB-Ve8 and the HPI Vorza it is great for that racer that crashes a lot or just wants that extra security.

HMS Group C P-Type Pro 10 body shell

SF Modellsport have introduced the next generation of Pro 10 body shell, the HMS Group C P-Type. The P-Type was especially developed for modern Pro 10’s with brushless motors. A flush and gently forward pulled driver’s cabin enables an ideal flow of air to the rear wing, while the long front end generates optimal downforce at the front axle. Small edges over the rear wheel arches connected to the large end plates of the rear wing give a very stable handling. Available in May, the shell is made from 1mm thick lexan and comes with a protective overspray film.
