HB Impreza Type B body & Red buggy tire inserts

Hot Bodies have released some new parts including this Subaru Impreza Type B body. This body shell replicates the endurance and touring car racing STI variant that competes in pro and semi-pro on-road racing around the world. The scoop on the hood and the spoiler on the rear window gave the body more stability during track testing, while the smooth front bumper features a large splitter for high downforce and maximum efficiency. Flat side panels provide consistent stability on the track, and the door areas are reinforced to reduce deflection at high speeds. Extra-large wing mount areas transfer all the downforce from the wing to the rear suspension for increased traction. Also new for 1/8th scale buggy are the red foam inserts, which have been extensively tested and are a great all round insert for a wide range of track conditions.

JConcepts have released the Punisher body for the Associated RC8T, with its mean look, it separates itself from the rest of the bodies on the market with it’s distinctive styling. Beginning with the newly re-designed grill and headlights, the hood and cab are amongst the lowest in class giving the Punisher top notch performance. The bed area represents the latest offering for 1/8th truck racing featuring a super low profile design for increased engine cooling, air flow and escape and it requires an additional Maifield edition blue anodised JConcepts rear body mount to fit it. Also new from JConcepts is the new Mono 3.7″ standard offset wheel for trucks. The new Mono wheels are the maximum allowed size under ROAR rules and make a statement with their large appearance, flat dish shaped design and inner rib design.
