Coming from JConcepts is their new 2014 Chevy 1500 MT single cab monster truck body shell. Designed for 12” to 12.5” trucks the shell offers the unmistakable Chevy single cab design with the exterior design blends a strong and study look while refining the details reserved for modern aesthetics.

A twin-port grille, full-width bumper and dual power hump hood create a strong presence, which is carried through in sculpted body sides and fender flares. The grille area has not been compromised and accepts the detailed JConcepts decal sheet and includes two different grille and headlight options. The front fascia is strong and while the large tire openings swoop through, the bumper has recessed areas for side-marker lights and air inlet. The tailgate is rigid in appearance with a slight undercut that is so common on the Chevrolet trucks. The 2014 Silverado’s bed features a slight recess which painters can leave clear or detail to their specification on any build. No race truck would be complete without a bobbed rear bedside to give racers extra clearance and an unmistakable visual rake. Each package includes window mask, new 2014 generation Chevy Silverado specific decal sheet and clear polycarbonate body.

With past success used as a guideline, the R&D team spent time breaking down the early model Mustangs and arrived at the roughly 13” wheel base and 10.75” width. The size accommodates the trend of utilizing SCT trucks as drag racing platforms. The end result has a low-slung appearance, tight wheel well openings, hood-scoop, bobbed tail and an extended front fascia. As an addition the set includes a rear spoiler option which attaches with an under/over technique.

Protoform V2 adjustable formula front wing

Protoform’s new V2 formula front wing is a 3-way adjustable solution for all popular 1/10th scale formula pan cars. The adjustability ensures the wing to suit any condition a track throws at the driver: a low-downforce option, a medium downforce with 1-element add-on winglet, or a high-downforce, 2-element add-on winglet for maximum steering feel. The tall wing endplates enhance straight-line stability and side-bite in long sweepers. Inspired by popular American open-wheel cars from the late 1990s, Protoform also incorporated additional ground clearance at the outer extremities, especially important on U.S.-style high-grip carpet. A wide, flat section in the middle of the wing provides a perfect mating surface for any formula body. The wings are made from sleek, matte-finished, ultra-durable nylon and will fit most popular formula cars on the market such as Xray, Team Associated, Tamiya and Roche. They are available in Black colour now, with a white option coming soon.

Protoform has captured every detail of this mid-engine sports car that captured GT class wins at the 2016 24h of Le Mans and back-to-back 24h of Daytona in 2017 and 2018. The officially-licensed body fits 1/10th scale 190mm touring cars, with extra clearances built-in to fit over the front and rear shock towers. The distinctive side wings are add-on pieces that can be secured with the included hardware, shoo-goo or high-strength double-sided tape. New lighter-weight material lowers the centre of gravity of the USGT car, improving responsiveness. Each body also includes injection moulded nylon wing struts, a unique rear wing, decal sheet, window masks, and overspray film.
