Destiny RX-10S 1/10th touring car kit

Destiny RX-10S 1/10th touring car kit

Following a couple of prototype images, Destiny have released a handful of production kit images of their all-new RX-10S 1/10th touring car kit. At the first glance the car is of a class-standard design with a double deck carbon fibre chassis, different chassis flex options and low-profile big bore shock absorbers. A bit of a difference though are the lower wishbones with honeycomb-shaped reinforcement struts, as well as the rail-type steering and hex adapter design, with the latter two reminding of the design used on a certain Russian touring car. Other features of the RX-10S kit include specially coated spring-steel driveshafts, C-hubs with caster inserts, POM damper pistons, as well as a lightweight composite front spool. It is understood that the first batch of the kit is ready for shipment, meaning the car will hit the stores shortly.

New from ST Racing Concepts come lightweight aluminium nut drivers.
