Exotek Pzero R 1:10 USGT Body

New from Exotek Racing is their Pzero R 1:10 USGT approved body. The Italian super car modelled GT body has now been optimised for todays ultra low profile touring car suspensions. It’s 194mm width allows you to run wider suspension or wheel hex set ups which is excellent for high grip tracks to reduce rolling. Like the real car its is based on, the Pzero R has deeply sculpted body lines that sits super low around the suspension for reduced drag, increased air flow to the rear wing and super low centre of gravity. The Pzero R is also molded with an aggressive splitter, flared fenders, low slung hood, downforce inducing side skirts and extra rear spoiler elements for the most aggressive aero package with minimal drag. Exotek Racing’s new wing design also has raised wing pedestals placing the wing higher up into clean air and also is more adjustable- allowing you to mount the wing forward or back or add spacers to raise the wing higher.

Xray X4 Glass Fibre ‘Soft’ Upper Decks

New for their X4 1:10 Electric Touring Car, Xray has released these ‘Soft’ Glass Fibre Upper Decks. Specially made from flexible & durable glass fibre material to increase the flex of the car they improve handling on low to medium grip tracks. Machined from 1.5mm glass fibre, the shape of the top deck has been specifically designed to achieve maximum traction and great steering characteristics at the same time. The top deck can be connected to the motor mount using these alternatives. For a Soft setting, only one rear screw is used. This allows maximum flex and provides maximum steering. However, the car is less stable on-power. To achieve a Stiff setting, both screws are used. This setting gives reduced flex both in front and rear. Mid-corner steering is decreased, rotation is decreased. This setting provides maximum stability and makes the car easier to drive.
