Pro Line MBX-6 & RC8T Shift shells

Pro-Line have released a new shell for both the Mugen MBX-6, one of the most anticipated 1:8 buggies to hit the market and the Associated RC8T the latest and greatest 1:8 truck to hit the market. The new shell design called Shift, will give both your MBX-6 and RC8T the lowest possible CG while carefully crafted, hard/yet precise body lines are the now generation of body styling. Crisp lines carefully sculpted to hug the chassis interior like a glove. All this allows for the smallest cab and side pod design possible. Combined with genuine GE .040 Lexan and you’re ready to hit the track in the latest fashion.

Protoform R9-R & PF8 GT body shells

Protoform have released their much anticipated R9-R, which is the latest in 190mm touring sedan bodies. This Global Body Spec ready race body is designed specifically for rubber tire racing whether it’s on a carpet or a paved surface racetrack. It features a low center of gravity even at the legal 115mm height. The oversize rear wing helps performance on a poor-grip surface that’s commonly experienced in club racing. Also new is the PF8 GT shell, designed for the exciting 1/8th scale GT class. This body style is sure to enhance speed and handling with its large rear wing and front splitter. It’s pulled in rugged genuine lexan and features 3 wing struts for added durability. If more rear downforce is required, the wing has the extra lexan material needed to bend a “gurney lip” across the top edge. Both bodies come with protective film, decals and wing mounting hardware.
