ZooRacing Hellcat 190mm touring car body shell

ZooRacing from Germany is busy adding more groundbreaking 190mm touring car body shells to their line-up with the latest creation being the Hellcat. The goal was to create a more efficient body with advanced aerodynamics that allow for aggressive cornering and yet a nailed rear end. This was achieved by using a long front section with splitter that sits 10mm further forward while a round-shaped outer line ensures a smoother transition when changing directions as the air flows smoothly and constantly over the front splitter, fenders and grille. In addition to the splitter the windshield and cabin also sit 10mm further forward with the whole section being shaped like a drop for maximised rear grip and stability thanks to optimised airflow towards the rear wing. Smooth transitions from the hood over the cabin towards the rear lid ensure optimised aerodynamic efficiency and thus less turbulences and drag, which leads to equal front-to-rear balance at both low and high speeds.

Capricorn C03 & C803 adjustable weight battery holder

Capricorn have introduced a new adjustable weight receiver battery mount for their Lab C03 and C803 cars. Machined from carbon fibre the mounting plate utilises two movable 13.5g tungsten weights that allow to adjust the overall weight bias while adding weight at the lowest point of the chassis, ensuring a lower overall centre of gravity. The carbon fibre mount comes with a machined lot for the battery tape, making for easy and secure receiver battery mounting and the 13.5g weights are understood to also become available separately to further up the weight.
