The groundbreaking
release of the 09-engine powered KF-01 formula racer in July 2010
started the continual evolution of performance as each machine
challenged for dominance of the F-GPX series races that spread across
the globe, just like the original formula racing machines. From the
other side of the spectrum, the 1/12 Plazma Ra sparked a revival in
electric car racing in 2012 with dynamic performances earning it
recognition as a trend leader in electric competition models. Now the
technological strengths of these two machines have forged into a
competition-level electric model, set to dominate formula racing. The
simple, slim and sophisticated design incorporates the stacked battery
layout and the proven center pivot and rear side link suspension of the
Plazma Ra within similar dimensions of the KF-01. The pitching shock
with diaphragm maintains constant volume and combines with a friction
tube roll damper to deliver rock-solid stability.
Available: November 2012
