PROTOform "R5-N" #1520-30

Protoform is excited to announce the immediate release of the all new “R5-N” 200mm gas sedan race body. Gas sedan bodies require numerous openings to be cut in the roof area to enable cooling and fuel filling and thus the bodies tend to become aerodynamically “dirty” and inefficient. Protoform has designed a body to minimize the net drag losses caused by these openings. The unique side windows as well as the rear window contours enhance the efficiency of the linear airflow into and out of the body - without having a negative effect on engine cooling. Every feature including the large rear wing is within EFRA/ROAR/200mm Global Body Spec dimensions. The enlarged wing struts allow for the use of larger screws for quicker trackside adjustments, and the center strut adds stability. Made to fit all the popular 200mm gas chassis this body is pulled in .030 lexan. It’s supplied with protective covering, decal sheet, window masks and wing hardware.

The "R5-N" is sure to be another “step forward” for the serious racer - something Protoform has built its reputation on.
