Protoform brings Corvette Racing’s championship heritage to 1/8 GT Class racing with this officially-licensed Corvette C7.R race body. From the signature Corvette muscular stance and swept-back roofline, to the large front splitter and side vents, every detail of the 1:1 race car is captured to add scale realism to the world of 1/8 GT. The extensive decal sheet lets you deck out your C7.R with Corvette branded windshield headers, “Jake” skull hood logo, number plates, and USA flags. Included with the body is an add-on rear wing, secured with three oversized nylon screws and featuring 2 trim-lines and spill-plate sizes: a lower line for sanctioned racing, and an upper line for low-grip club racing. This body fits 1/8 GT cars with the longer (GT2) wheelbase of 360mm, such as the Kyosho Inferno GT2. GT1 class racers, don’t fret: a shorter wheelbase version (328mm) of the C7.R is coming soon.

Coming from Pro-Line are several option parts for monster trucks and crawlers such as a bodyshell, body accessories and new tyres. Starting on the monster truck side of things, new and made for the Traxxas Revo 3.3, T-Maxx 3.3 the MGT and Summit is the 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor bodyshell. Pro-Line’s highly detailed yet functional replica has included all the rugged Raptor style and attitude into the body and decal sheet, it has a bold and tough body style and is the most cutting edge look available. As usual the body comes clear, including window masks and a comprehensive decal sheet.
Pro-Line have introduced the new Enforcer bodyshell for the Team Associated T5M 1/10th scale 2WD truck. Originally from the mind of World Champion Pro-Line Driver Ty Tessmann and inspired from the success of the larger Truggy Enforcer body, the Enforcer has a meaner and more angular front end look with swooping roof and bed sections for improved airflow and high-speed stability. The hood of the truck is steeper to create more down force over the front wheels for more steering and faster lap times. The body comes clear, including window masks and a decal sheet and it is a direct fit on AE’s 5th generation mid motor truck.
New from JConcepts comes the Aero lower from wing for 1/10th 2WD buggies such as the Team Associated B5M and TLR 22 3.0. The lower front wing mounts in a more forward position and is quite easy to trim, use and test without sacrificing all important track time. The front wing features a high-attack design with trim-able rear gurney options. A radical, edgy design which functions and compliments the Finnisher and Silencer body design includes elements and features fresh for the latest off-road conditions. The lower front wing comes in 2-piece sets, is not car specific and can be used on most all 1/10th off-road buggies. Due to customer and team demands, JConcepts has opted to release a genuine 3D printed front mount for the B5M and TLR 22 3.0 vehicle via the company’s Shapeways store. Although not an injection moulded part, the 3D print item should give ample support to drivers wanting to utilise the JConcepts designed parts for a completely matched setup as used by the factory race team.
JConcepts have introduced the 1989 Ford F-250 monster truck bodyshell. The must-have body of the 1980’s was featured on several of the most popular full-size monster trucks during this generation and always proved to be popular among the Ford enthusiasts and always wreaked havoc on the competition. The 1989 F-Series carries over the same body style from the previous generation, yet sports a new rounded front clip that improves vehicle aerodynamics over its predecessors. The softened body lines around the rear of the bed and large fender arches around the wheel wells provides the scale monster truck look. The body features flush-fitting grille and headlights, wrap-around parking lights, a minimalist grille and an accurate and clean-looking Ford/JConcepts decal sheet. The 10.5″ wheelbase and 7″ wide body comes clear and it fits a variety of R/C monster trucks including the iconic Tamiya Clod Buster.

The F-150 body is specifically built for the Vaterra Ascender and Axial chassis providing even more versatility to the wildly successful platforms. Made from clear polycarbonate the body comes including a comprehensive decal sheet.
