Just in time to start testing for the US Indoor Champs and the Snowbirds, Protoform is proud to release the first ‘purpose designed’ body for the new WGT category, the Sophia GT. With its svelte yet functional shape it is sure to set a standard for the WGT class. It’s made to fit all the new 200mm pan car chassis that have been hitting the R/C marketplace as of late. Pulled in genuine .030 lexan it comes with an add-on wing, decal sheet and wing hardware.
With the new 200mm pan car class gaining popularity with every passing month Protoform is introducing a new LeMans prototype body style, the Mulsanne LMP. This body incorporates the svelte look and the flowing lines of the many “factory works prototypes” that raced in the 24hr classic in the late 90’s. It features an add-on rear spoiler extension with a gurney flap as well as a high mounted wing. A pair of injection molded wing struts are included as well. The wing profile and wing strut lengths can be trimmed to optimize handling for both carpet and paved track surfaces and it’s designed to fit all of the latest in 200mm pan car chassis. It also comes complete with wing and spoiler hardware, window masks, and protective film. The decal sheets feature two different headlamp styles.
We wrote about the new DB10R from BMI Racing in detail when it was first announced and now the company has been in touch to announce that they has started shipping their new 200mm 1/10th Scale Pan Chassis Kit. Designed for racing in the emerging “World GT” Class, they hope to have more information about this new class, and the major racing events that will be running World GT classes, shortly.
