ARC R12 mid-motor touring car – Coming soon

ARC have released a first drivetrain teaser image of their forthcoming new R12 mid-motor 1/10th scale 4WD touring car. The R12 will feature a completely new design of the belt pulleys, differential and bulkheads, with the motor mount being an all-new single-piece construction to reinforce the centre part of the chassis and help reduce belt skipping. The redesigned bulkheads will relocate the anti-roll bar to a lower position with all of these features helping to lower the overall centre of gravity of the car. Full details will become available in time of the release.
