Not only do the included hexes allow you to choose between the KRATON™ 8S and X-MAXX® axle sizes, but they also allow you to easily replace a damaged wheel hex without needing to replace your glued tires and eliminate the need for other adapters or wheel modification. The hefty 8×48 interlocking hex design is secured to the wheel by 8 M3 screws that are spaced 48mm across. Replacement Hexes are available separately (#6383-00).

Pro-Line is proud to introduce our next generation of LED lightbars for your RC vehicles! The Ultra-Slim lightbars feature a low-profile, highly detailed injection-molded housing that holds a super-bright strip of LEDs that run off 5-12V power. They come ready to use with plug & play industry-standard receiver plugs and a 12″ lead that you can choose to plug directly into your receiver, or wire directly to a 2S or 3S battery. The lens on the lightbars has a dual focus combo: a spot pattern in the middle section and a diffused flood pattern towards the outer edges.

Off-Road Carpet Buggy Tires

Introducing the Harpoon, Pro-Line’s latest and greatest solution for high-grip 1/10 Carpet Buggy Racing. The Harpoon features a unique, modern pin design with a round base for more support and longer wear. The directional pin layout gives the racer options to tune forward and site bite characteristics depending on track conditions. A narrow, lower profile carcass improves agility and reduces sidewall fold-over. The outside harpoon-shaped lugs increase high-speed cornering stability in high grip conditions, reducing the need for sidewall CA gluing.

Chevy Corvette Body

One of the most iconic drag cars of yesteryear is now available for your No Prep RC Drag Car! PROTOform introduces the 1963 Chevy® Corvette Stingray™ Pro-Mod. We combined the signature “split-window”, enlarged rear haunches and low-slung nose with some stretched, pro-mod drag racing proportions to transform your no-prep car into a scale-1/4-mile beast. The exaggerated ribs and front fenders create an extra stiff hood area to avoid folding down at high speeds. Due to the overall slammed design of the hood, this body will only fit the latest high-end No Prep racing models with low-profile front shock towers.
