SpeedMerchant have new side dams and wing sets for Protoform’s Swift 235 Pro10 bodyshell available. Coming as carbon fibre or clear polycarbonate variant, the aerodynamic helpers will give the car much more rear grip than the stock pieces. The side dams are used for both indoor carpet racing as well as outdoors on asphalt. They make the car more predictable by helping it track straighter and hold its line better in high speed corners. Suited mainly for high speed asphalt racing, the rear wing is contoured to the back of the body so all of the air travelling over the shell is forced directly on to and over the rear wing for maximum down force. The 30 thousandths carbon fibre also has the benefit of making the rear of the Swift body more ridged and less likely to distort under the air pressure of high speed modified asphalt racing.

Made for the 4.0 series of TLR 8ight off-road buggies is JConcepts’ new front scoop. It serves as a front nose-cone on the vehicle but with a front wing design that has shown to produce enhanced steering characteristics. The front scoop can be painted, left clear or frosted for the desired look, fit and finish. Reports from the pit area revealed an increased feel and sensitivity in the larger sweeping sections and helped jumping attitude in the most difficult driving sections.

The aluminium base and machined delrin post make for a stiff rigid mount perfect for the scale World GT-R bodies.
Team Azarashi have introduced their new Magna 1/10th buggy rear wing. Designed for high-speed tracks the wing is of a unique shape that allows the wing to sit closer to the rear axle than most wings while the added ribs on the main element improve aerodynamic drag and durability without sacrificing downforce. The wing fits most of today’s 2WD and 4WD buggies and it is made of high-quality polycarbonate.
