Team Azarashi Fantas buggy front wing

Team Azarashi have released their Fantas buggy front wing. Designed for use with various 2WD buggies such as the AE B4 and Kyosho Ultima RB5, it allows the steering feel to be adjusted by changing the cutting line of the unique nose part and the gurney flap. For sharp steering at corner entry, cut out the bottom half of the nose, while for high speed stability, leave the bottom half of the nose. Expected to be finalised by the beginning of September.

JConcepts Illuzion SC10 over tray

When racing on a loamy or top soil track surface the inside of the SC10 chassis can become loaded with dirt or debris which creates extra weight. With the JConcepts over-tray these worries are minimized with the simple and functional over-tray. Fitting nicely under the body, it hugs the outside dimension of the SC10 chassis protecting the inside from unwanted excess dirt and debris build-up during racing conditions. The over-tray is snug around the entire chassis structure while being attached in the rear with blue anodized thumbscrews and a slide-in fit in the front for easy access. The over-tray is built with extra height and rake to provide extra room for various electrical and battery configurations.

Exclusive – Protoform AMR-12 body shell

On Oct 1st 2009 there will be new EFRA/BRCA body rules that will come into effect, so a ‘clean sheet’ type design was required by Protoform in an effort to fully comply. The AMR-12 had been exhaustively tested in preparation for these rule changes and the body has actually shown an increase in performance over the ‘old format’ type race bodies. It’s made to fit all the popular 1/12th chassis with design considerations built in to accommodate the larger brushless motors and lead wires. This semi-realistic body is pulled in .020 lexan and has a protective film on it. Ready to ship at this time, it’s just in time to start practicing for the IIC Race in Vegas and the US Indoor Champs in Cleveland.
