Protoform T-HD Pro-Lite oval body shell

Protoform’s popular T-HD 1/10th scale oval body shell is now also available in a Pro-Lite variant for more weight savings and more speed. The body is made to fit all the latest oval pan-car chassis designs and with multiple moulded in trim lines, it’s able to be mounted in such a way as to meet TOUR body height specifications for capped tyre racing, foam tyre racing as well as the ultra-slammed Saturday night “run-what-ya-brung: style of racing. The T-HD is a high downforce design specifically shaped for flat tracks. This design also incorporates signature PROTOform body science and aero-tweaks, allowing some room for fore and aft adjustment to find the perfect handling balance. The left side features a bumped-out area for added clearance, and the body comes with an add-on spoiler extension with mounting hardware, decal sheet, paint-then-peel overspray film and window masks.
