Bittydesign have released the new Force body for the Xray XB9 buggy. Recently shown at the Euros in Austria, the new body is a real good alternative to the existing stock body. Italian Xray Factory driver Alessandro Stocco used the new body during qualifying at the Euros and his impressions were really good saying the car had more steering in low speed corners but at same time was more stable on high speed turns compared to the standard body. The big fin on the roof and the rear engine ‘reverse scoop’ section complete the look of this new cab forward body. Made from high quality 1mm thick Lexan polycarbonate, it is sold with window masks, decal sheet and protective film.

RC9394 are happy to release a new line of option parts for the Team Associated TC6 line of touring cars. First up are the double joint CVD drive shafts that minimise the vibration and wheel chatter at high steering angles. They are made from high-quality spring steel and come with spring retainer clips and bearings. Also available for the TC6 are body support posts that are simply slipped over the stock body posts and secured with a body clip. They make for an improved body fit and better transmission of the downforce created by the body shell. The supports are also available for Tamiya and Xray body post diameter.
