Awesomatix A12X & A12WC Pan Car kits

In an exciting week of news of new 1:12 cars, Awesomatix has just released not one but two new versions of its A12. The first of these, the A12WC, is a refined version of the previous A12 kit firstly introduced during the 2020 World Championship and recently crowned IFMAR Spec World Champion in the hands of Awesomatix’s team manager Max Mächler. The A12WC kit includes the proven A12 concept where the rear spring action is controlled by the flexing of the chassis itself assisted by a pair of coil side springs that also act as an additional rear spring. The chassis shape is new and has been refined to further enhance the flex distribution while also incorporating the rear brace. The second released, named A12X, brings its design slightly more towards traditional 12^th scale cars where side and rear spring actions are independent. This is achieved thanks to a built-in coil spring inside the rear damper and new side coil springs positioned at the very front of the chassis. The new steel chassis brings the CG even lower and allows for a narrower and sleeker shape to the whole design.

Excelerate RC Prodigy 12 1:12 – Final Prototype

Josh Cyrul, one of America’s most experienced electric onroad racers and an accomplished car designer, has posted on his social media images of the new Excelerate RC Prodigy 12 1:12 chassis he has penned. In the post Cyrul explains, “This is the final prototype fitting of parts so some of the anodize colors are being switched around as well as the shapes and fit of a few parts but everything is in production with a good portion of production already finished. I’m sure people will say it’s a copy… Until you flip it over and realize it’s for sure not. A huge % of this car is actually based off cars I drove and started designing in the mid-late 90’s. From the my heavily modified Corally F1 car to the TQ Eagle of the early 90’s and all the hand dremal’d garage experiments along the way, this one is a heavy mix of concepts I’ve tried and really wanted to put together into a singular package. Steep learning curve ahead as we learn setups for various races and carpets but I’m pretty happy with the foundation we have to work with. More details coming soon…” The multiple ROAR National Champion finished up by announcing that he is also working on a second Excelerate RC chassis release saying, ‘Oh yeah, and if you think this is cool…. Just wait until you see the F1 car coming next!!”
