Titan Blitz TSX & Mini Jazz bodies

Titan Blitz TSX & Mini Jazz

After a lot of testing and development, Team Titan have released their new Blitz TSX 1/10 190mm Sedan bod. When traction builds up in a race, drivers need a body that can give more steering without sacrificing the stability so the new TSX body provides quicker response into the corner and increased steering while still maintaining a solid overall balance for improved drivability. The TSX body meets the current GBS rules and has been sent to EFRA for their approval for the 2013 race season. Available in standard 0.8mm, and light 0.7mm versions. Also new is the high roof Mini-Jazz 1/10 body. Made for the 1/10 Mini Class M03, M05…etc. with a 225mm wheelbase, it includes the rear wing and not only has great looking style but also gives the car great handing at speed that drivers need to race and have fun. Available in standard 1.0mm and light 0.8mm version.

SpeedMerchant OR-18 1/18th scale body

SpeedMerchant OR-18 1/18th scale body

SpeedMerchant have released their new 1/18th scale pan car racing body, the OR-18. This is the same body that SpeedMerchant drivers used to sweep the 2011 & 2012 Mini Carpet On-Road Nationals held at R/C Madness in Enfield, CT. This project was designed from the beginning to bring all of their winning 12th scale racing knowledge to the 18th scale pan car class. The body features everything that is at the cutting edge of 12th scale body design, just slightly shrunk down, to take your 18th scale to the podium. The Aero characteristics include a dorsal fin for better straight line tracking, more rear down force to help calm down the insanely overpowered 18th scale brushless cars, as well as more side force and side bite to help produce much higher corner speeds.
