Following first teaser images UK company Zen-Racing now have more information and photos on their first full-car kit available. Coming in two different specifications as extended RSGT12 Race and standard RS12GT12 kit, the 1/12th scale GT12 kit is of an ultra lightweight design with carbon fibre main chassis, aluminium pod plates and a solid graphite rear axle. A unique pivot system allows the rear end to float while the moulded front end suspension parts give only a minimum of adjustments, making the car user friendly even for less experienced drivers while still allowing enough fine-tuning potential for the Pro. Both the standard and Race kit come with pre-glued and trued JFT foam tyres, a 66T Kimbrough spur gear and duraluminum turnbuckles while the Race kit also includes aluminium servo mounts, a full set of front and rear ride height adjusters, a full positive lock rear diff, machined front suspension blocks for alternative caster and camber settings and more.
