HB Racing Pro-XX mid motor touring car – Prototype images

HB Racing have allowed a more in-depth view into their Pro-XX mid motor touring car concept following the recent release of a handful of images. The current state prototype uses parts developed by and in cooperation with Zero Tribe, with HB Racing’s former IMFMAR World Champion, Atsushi Hara giving the input and Zero Racing’s Yukinori Kagayama creating some of the prototype’s parts. For now the Pro-XX is of an equal length belt, centre shaft design with this layout being the most liked by Atsushi who performed a lot of tests with other configurations. For now the Pro-XX also used the Pro5’s suspension components, however these will likely see a revamp to cope with today’s powerful motor and batteries as well as the latest high-downforce body shells. More in-depth details can be found in a 10-minute video here.

2020 Nuremberg Toy Fair – Tamiya

The 2020 Nuremberg International Toy Fair kicked off today. Formerly known as the most important fair when it comes to everything toys and radio control, this importance has took some knocks during the last decade down to a situation that only a handful of big players are daring the annual trip to Germany’s “toy city” to present their forthcoming new products. One of them however is Tamiya who show some nice new kits – but nothing really race-worthy to be frank. Certainly a crowdpleaser is the forthcoming GF-01CB Comical Avante buggy, the latest addition to Tamiya’s popular Comical buggy line-up.
