Pro-Line RB5 BullDog body shell

Pro-Line RB5 BullDog body shell

Pro-Line have released their BullDog body for use with the Kyosho RB5 1:10 buggy. Providing performance that has, at times, been deemed an unfair advantage, BullDog bodies now set the standard in performance. The advanced cab forward design generates unmatched off-power steering, while the low profile rear deck feeds the wing with clean air flow. Made from durable / genuine Lexan, the super-low styling giving your RB5 the lowest center of gravity (CG) possible.

I believe this will be my fifteenth year on the Pro-Line team and one thing that has stood out throughout the years has been the people behind the scene at Pro-Line and their passion on making the best products possible. It’s so important to be associated with people that want to win. Pro-Line has a countless number of wins and everything that I have accomplished throughout the years is due to Pro-Line tires and wheels. Pro-Line has always been what has connected my race cars to track. I am very excited about the 2011 season. If you’re at the track, feel free to ask me what Pro-Line tires are working best for the condition. See you at the races.
