New from Team Titan is the Blitz Buggy808 body shell for the Xray XB808. Available in 1mm and 1.5mm thick versions, it features a higher and more forward cab to give more front down-force than the standard shell.

Protoform have given us the Exclusive first look at their all new P56-Nitro sedan 200mm body. This body is designed to be a more compact race body, thus offering superior response while giving excellent down force levels. This body adheres to the EFRA “Global Body Spec” rules as well as all ROAR body rules. The large aggressive wing sits upon 2 oversize wing stands that allow for larger wing screws and quick track side adjustments. Two small molded-in shark fins support the outer ends of the wing and prevent distortion at high speed. The P56-N is ROAR approved and is on the IFMAR ‘approved body’ list for this summer’s IFMAR Worlds in Houston TX. Made of high quality lexan, it’s available in 2 weights, ‘Lite’ and an even lighter weight ‘Pro-Lite’. It comes with a protective coating for easy painting. The body has been tested and given a “thumbs up” by racers like Mike Swauger and Scott Kimbrow. The P56-N will be available on May 5/10.

New from JConcepts, Flip Outs give drivers that tire in-between the Goose Bumps and Double Dees they have asked for. A very small pin construction makes up the foundation for the Flip Outs design and gives the grip when racers need it most, when the conditions are wet and green in the morning, traction is sometimes hard to come-by. Alternating center bar support provides the base for the forward traction while the small accommodating tapered pins provide the dig and flex under hard acceleration and cornering. Having shown the prototype Punisher shell for the Associated RC8B a while ago, it has been finalised and is now available. The slight cab-forward treatment is amongst the most aggressive in class giving the Punisher top notch performance, while a blended wing / body design gives additional down-force to the side-pods and windshield which increases drivability, corner speed and jump control. The rear base of the cab area represents the latest offering for 1/8th buggy racing featuring a super low profile design for increased engine cooling, air flow and escape.
