From Xray comes this new low-downforce body designed specifically for rough, damaged tracks. The body reduces downforce and makes the car easier to drive on these type of tracks. The body is also wider to fit the wider chassis of the XB9’13. When used with earlier XB9 cars, this body will be a bit too wide at the base.

Something a little different from Pro-Line is this 1966 Ford F-150 body for SC trucks with extended body mounts. Now you can have your very own custom ‘Hay Hauler’ with Pro-Line’s licensed body. The ’66 F-150 body comes with perfectly scaled details like the step-sides and huge fender flares that will bring you back to the good old days. You can even create your own version of the Class 8 Desert Truck that dominated the desert in the 1980’s.

Pro-Line have released their all new Pin Point buggy rear & Wedge 2wd Buggy front Carpet Tires. The Pin Point has thousands of Ultra-Sharp Pins in a unique Sine Wave pattern that grip the carpet better than Velcro. The Wedge has a true drop-in bead that does not require cutting or hand fitting and is super narrow and low-profile. The Hook shaped pins provide all the steering you can handle without being grabby. Pro-Line engineers have perfected an all-new Carpet Tire Compound (Z3) specifically for the needs of Indoor Carpet racing and this new Z material provides the best grip on a variety of surfaces used indoor (carpet, wood, cardboard, plastic, etc.). Also new for buggy from Pro-Line is the release of the Proton rear tire in M3 Soft and M4 Super Soft compounds.

Mon-Tech have introduced their new O-RO 1/8 off-road body series featuring shells for popular models from Kyosho, Mugen, Xray & Losi, some in two different configurations. Featuring a new and improved design and better performance the bodies are molded from high quality 1mm thick polycarbonate and are supplied with masking for the windows and decals.

JConcepts have released the Silencer body for the Hot Bodies D812, a brand-new, ground up design which has new elements created for the highest speed circuits. A narrowed, Finnisher stance cockpit allows more fuel tank access a smoother high-speed transition and increased flow around the engine heat-sink. A deep recess around the heat-sink area with dual channeling out the rear provides air escape along with rear-end stability, while the Silencer side-pods have a clipped rear-end, narrowing the rear by angling just in front of the rear tires. The extended runner features are placed on the rear-end of the body enhancing the force placed on the rear pods during high-speed acceleration. The main pods are heavily chamfered and a more heat-shrink design over the pipe, fuel tank and electrical / linkage make up the main pods. The end result has the body looking extremely low-profile with heavy JConcepts edginess and appeal. The Silencer is capped off with a cock-pit “shark fin” for more high-speed tracking stability and increased roof stiffness.
