PROTOform Strakka-12 1/12 Scale Racing Body | CompetitionX

Protoform Strakka-12 1/12 Scale Racing Body

The 1/12 scale class is constantly evolving, and bodies must also evolve to provide drivers top-level handling. PROTOform has seen the writing on the wall and produced a Stock-only 1/12 scale body – the Strakka-12 1/12 Scale Racing Body.

This body has been designed with less downforce than other bodies in it’s class for those running classes that don’t require it as much; ie, the 1/12 Stock class. However, it continues to provide efficient downforce and can also be used by Modified drivers on super-high-grip tracks (with the addition of the included Gurney Flap).

The Strakka-12 is EFRA, IFMAR, BRCA, ROAR and JMRCA legal. Available in normal (.030″), lightweight (.020″) and PRO-Lite versions.

Package includes decal sheet, Gurney Flap hardware and the crystal-clear Strakka-12 body covered in PROTOforms Paint-then-peel overspray film.

(See PROTOform’s Painting Tip Videos for some great info on painting 1/12 scale bodies.)
