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 has released this 1-Piece 2.0mm Carbon Fibre Chassis for its X12 1:12 pan car. CNC-machined from premium high-grade USA made carbon fibre material, the 1-piece chassis reduces drag and improves cornering speed.

Extending its range of front coil springs for its X12 1:12 pan car, Xray has added this new Black C=1.1 option. For pan car front suspension with 4mm king pin axles, this option is the softest of the range and like the other 3 available springs is powder colour-coded for quick & easy identification. Developed through extensive testing and racing experience, the stiffness is controlled by the thickness of the wire and by the number of coils; softer springs have a lower “C” value, while stiffer springs have a higher “C” value.
