Schumacher Racing have introduced the new Aerox Razor high performance 190mm touring car body shell. Developed in cooperation with a leading Formula 1 aerodynamicist the body offers exceptional aerodynamic efficiency with the maximised double front splitter creating a pressure differential that provides front aerodynamic grip. An uniquely adjustable curved rear wing helps to adjust downforce, balance and drag while the upturned leading edge on the wing allows airflow to remain attached, improving its efficiency for more downforce and less drag. The maximised length of the body improves two aspects; firstly more surface area for developing load and thus downforce and reducing lift, and secondly drag reduction, as the air passing over the body has to work less hard, deviating at a lower angle than normal, reducing drag and increasing speed. The BRCA and ROAR approved lightweight body is supplied clear and it includes a wing and mounting hardware, overspray film, a lights and decal set as well as an instruction sheet.

VP-Pro have introduced their new composite rear wing for the Mugen MBX8 buggy. The adjustable wing features an optional wickerbill to adjust the overall downforce and drag generated and it comes pre-drilled to make it a direct fit on Mugen’s latest 1/8th buggy. The side dams measure 98x59mm, allowing to attach 40x50mm race numbers at sanctioned events. The wing is available in black, yellow and white colour from now on.
Coming from HPI Racing and made for the Venture Toyota FJ trail truck is the universal wheel well set. It is the ideal way to help keep the inside of the truck clean, plus it adds extra realism to the rig at the same time. The item is made from clear, flexible and lightweight polycarbonate, and to make it fit users simply cut it out and paint it in the desired colour using RC polycarbonate paint for an cool, scale look that also keeps away dust, dirt and moisture. Included come instructions and mounting hardware.
Yokomo have introduced their new body hole markers for 6mm touring car body posts. The markers help to easily and conveniently locate the body post positions on both clear and painted bodies. Aluminium tubes are placed on all four body posts and the body is placed onto them with four magnets marking the individual front and rear body post positions that then can be marked using a fine line permanent marker prior to drilling. The strong magnetic force of the magnet prevents the body from moving on the markers for even greater precision and the markers come in sets of four in a convenient carrying case.
Leadfinger Racing brings an all-new look to the popular Team Associated 1/10 scale B64D wheeler with the introduction of the A2 Tactic body shell. The new lid is influenced by racer request from the previous 1/8 designs, giving it an aggressive and sleek style. To bring back a little old school, the windshield has been laid down to remove the steep rake, while at the same time keeping a modern cab forward feel. The combo gives the B64D a super slick and fast look right up front. The top of the cab has an added roof vent for superior cooling that pushes air flow over the centre diff and motor, further enhancing it’s one of a kind style. To help keep everything planted, the rear of the cab has the traditional swoop along with added down force ailerons on the top of the side pods. The body comes in clear with window masks and stickers provided and also including two LFR Tactic wings.
JConcepts have introduced the Finnisher body shell for the TLR 22T 4.0 2WD stadium truck. The lid features a slight cab forward design, a raked windshield, and an aggressive stance. A revised front hood scoop allows plenty of clearance for the unique 22-T geometry while smoothing out the front down force area. Front chin spoiler, headlight and grill protect the front-end from unwanted up-drafts during flight. Like the ROAR National Champion Hi-Flow SCT body, the Finnisher body has built-in air escape passages which allow the customer to fine-tune the body for maximum outdoor performance. The latest stadium trucks have the ability to utilise shocks placed on the front or rear of the rear suspension, the JConcepts body accommodates both configurations for the utmost versatility. The new body includes the high performance gurney spoiler which increases rear grip and balances the handling characteristics of the aggressively styled body that comes clear, including window masks and a decal sheet.
Coming from JConcepts and made for the Tekno NT48.3 truggy is the new Finnisher body shell. The slight cab forward, raked windshield and aggressive stance highlight a performance oriented core while wide front hood scoop allows plenty of clearance for the unique Tekno NT48.3 shock geometry. The body incorporates a large centre fin which begins on the roof line and finishes just past the half-way point on the bed. Extended front chin spoiler, headlight and grill protect the front-end from unwanted up-drafts during flight while the supplied decals stand-out like an 18 wheeler. The body comes moulded from high-quality polycarbonate, including window masks and a decal sheet and it also fits and works with the ET48.3 electric truck.
