Overview
Introducing the PROTOform 1/10 P63 PRO-Lite (0.5mm) Clear Body for 190mm TC — an aerodynamic masterpiece designed for high-competition 1/10 electric touring car racing. This ultra high-downforce, super low-CG body shell represents the latest innovation from PROTOform, specifically engineered to dominate today's insanely fast 190mm sedans in competitive RC racing across the UK and beyond. Whether you're a seasoned competitor looking for a race-ready body shell or an ambitious racer stepping up to competition-grade equipment, the P63 PRO-Lite delivers the performance, engineering quality, and ease of use that serious RC car UK enthusiasts demand.
The P63 has been designed with the modern racer firmly in mind, combining aggressive aerodynamic principles with practical mounting solutions that make preparation faster and easier than ever before. This is a clear, unpainted polycarbonate body that gives you complete creative freedom to paint and decal your own custom livery, making it perfect for club racers, championship competitors, and anyone seeking a genuine, performance-focused RC touring car body. Manufactured in the USA from high-quality, super-durable polycarbonate, the P63 PRO-Lite (0.5mm) thickness offers the ideal balance between lightweight construction and durability — providing excellent all-around performance for competitive racing without being so fragile that it's reserved only for expert drivers.
The PRO-Lite specification at 0.5mm thickness strikes the perfect middle ground in PROTOform's weight options. It's substantially more durable and forgiving than the X-Lite (0.4mm) variant which is truly reserved for expert drivers only, whilst remaining significantly lighter than the Heavy Weight (0.65mm) option. This makes the P63 PRO-Lite an excellent choice for serious competitors who want to maximise performance on the track while maintaining the reliability needed for consistent racing. The body is designed to meet Global Body Spec rules, ensuring you can use it in sanctioned racing events and club competitions worldwide.
Key Features
- Radical High-Downforce Design — The P63 features a sloped hood and cab-forward layout that generates significant aerodynamic downforce, keeping your 190mm sedan planted on the track during high-speed cornering and acceleration, which directly translates to faster lap times and more predictable handling characteristics.
- Recessed Trunk Section for Low Centre of Gravity — The sculpted rear trunk area lowers the overall centre of gravity of your RC touring car, improving weight distribution and handling balance while also providing additional structural rigidity where you need it most for competitive performance.
- Stiffening Hood Ribs Throughout the Design — Internal ribbing patterns throughout the hood and body structure maintain structural integrity whilst minimising weight, ensuring the shell resists deflection even under extreme cornering forces during high-speed racing without adding unnecessary mass.
- Sculpted Side Door Panels for Increased Side-Bite — The carefully crafted side door contours improve aerodynamic side force, providing better lateral grip and stability when diving into corners, a critical advantage in close competitive racing situations.
- High Flow Rear Bumper Area — The open rear bumper design reduces aerodynamic drag in the critical rear section, allowing your 190mm electric touring car to achieve better top speeds and maintain velocity on high-speed sections of the track.
- Signature Mounting Marks with 2mm Increments — PROTOform's renowned mounting marks inside the front wheel arches allow you to adjust body position in precise 2mm increments up to +8mm, giving you fine-tuned control over aerodynamic balance and weight distribution to suit your specific driving style and track conditions.
- Easy Alignment Markings Throughout — Additional markings on the hood, decklid, and rear bumper make aligning your body posts to your chassis a quick and stress-free process, whether you're using vertical or horizontal rear body post configurations, saving valuable setup time before racing.
- Includes Convenient Plastic Wing Buttons and Under-Wing Nuts — The supplied plastic wing buttons and under-wing fastening nuts (along with M3 x 6 black screws) provide secure, reliable wing mounting with minimal weight addition, allowing quick wing adjustments without tools.
- Decal Sheet, Window Masks, and Overspray Film Included — Everything you need to prepare and paint your body is included: a stylish decal sheet for custom livery design, window masks to keep paint off the clear areas, and paint-then-peel overspray film to protect areas you want to keep transparent during painting.
- High-Quality USA Polycarbonate Construction — Manufactured in the United States from premium polycarbonate material, this body shell offers the durability needed for repeated use in competitive racing whilst maintaining the optical clarity and strength required for genuine racing performance.
- Global Body Spec Compliant — Designed and engineered to meet Global Body Spec rules, ensuring compatibility with international racing standards and sanctioned competition events, making it a reliable choice for any racer targeting club or championship competition.
Technical Performance
The P63 PRO-Lite represents a significant engineering achievement in 1/10 scale RC touring car body design. At 0.5mm thickness, the polycarbonate shell provides the optimal balance of weight reduction and structural durability that serious competitors expect from modern racing equipment. The body has been engineered specifically for 190mm wheelbase touring cars, which dominate competitive RC racing in the UK and internationally. The ultra high-downforce aerodynamic profile works in conjunction with the low centre of gravity design to improve cornering speed, stability during acceleration, and overall lap time consistency. The stiffening contours throughout the design ensure that even under the extreme forces generated by modern brushless electric motors and high-performance suspension systems, the body maintains its shape and aerodynamic characteristics throughout an entire racing session. The recessed trunk section doesn't just lower the CG — it also adds structural rigidity to the entire rear section, preventing the body from flexing under braking and cornering forces. The sculpted side door panels increase side-bite aerodynamically whilst the high-flow rear bumper area specifically minimises drag in the critical rear section, allowing maximum top-end performance on straights. The mounting system with its precise 2mm increment markings allows setup flexibility that lets you fine-tune aerodynamic balance to suit different track conditions, weather, and driving styles. This is an unpainted clear body, so the actual shell colour is transparent polycarbonate — you'll paint and decal it yourself using the included window masks and overspray film for professional results. The body ships with everything needed for mounting and painting preparation, though you'll need a separate 190mm touring car chassis, motor, ESC, battery, and radio system to create a complete, race-ready RC car.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the P63 PRO-Lite suitable for beginners? — The P63 PRO-Lite at 0.5mm thickness is a good all-around option that bridges the gap between expert and intermediate drivers. It's more forgiving than the X-Lite (0.4mm) which is truly expert-only, but still delivers excellent performance for competitive racing. If you're new to 190mm touring car racing or RC car UK racing in general, the PRO-Lite is an excellent starting point. However, if you're a complete beginner to RC racing, you may want to consider starting with a heavier 0.65mm body shell, which offers more durability against crashes and mistakes whilst you develop your skills and track experience.
- What is the difference between the X-Lite, PRO-Lite, and Heavy Weight versions? — PROTOform offers the P63 in three thickness options: X-Lite (0.4mm) is the absolute lightest option designed exclusively for expert drivers who prioritise maximum speed and have the skill to avoid damage; PRO-Lite (0.5mm) is the middle option offering excellent performance with better durability, suitable for most serious competitors; Heavy Weight (0.65mm) is the thickest and most durable option, recommended for novice drivers, outdoor racing in windy conditions, or anyone who wants maximum crash resistance. Your choice should depend on your skill level, track environment, and how aggressively you push your RC touring car.
- Is this body painted? — No, the P63 PRO-Lite is sold as a clear, unpainted body. The transparent polycarbonate shell allows light through, giving you complete creative freedom to paint your own custom colour scheme and livery. All the accessories you need for painting are included: window masks to protect the clear sections, paint-then-peel overspray film to achieve professional results, and a decal sheet with pre-designed graphics. This unpainted approach is perfect for racers who want personalised liveries or club colours.
- Will this body fit my 190mm touring car? — The P63 PRO-Lite is specifically engineered for 190mm wheelbase touring cars, which are the standard specification for competitive 1/10 electric touring car racing worldwide. However, mounting compatibility depends on your specific chassis and body post configuration. The P63 features PROTOform's signature mounting marks inside the front wheel arches with 2mm increment adjustments up to +8mm, plus alignment marks on the hood, decklid, and rear bumper, making it compatible with most modern 190mm TC chassis designs. If you're unsure whether it will fit your specific chassis, we recommend consulting your chassis manual or contacting our RC Model Shop team.
- How does the P63 aerodynamic design improve my lap times? — The radical high-downforce profile with sloped hood and cab-forward layout generates significant aerodynamic grip, keeping your 190mm sedan more planted during high-speed corners. The recessed trunk lowers your centre of gravity for better weight distribution and handling balance. The sculpted side door panels increase side-bite for better lateral grip in corners. The high-flow rear bumper reduces aerodynamic drag for better top-end speed on straights. Combined, these aerodynamic features work together to improve cornering speed, acceleration traction, stability, and overall lap consistency — precisely what competitive racers need to achieve faster times.
- Can I use this body in official racing competitions? — Yes, the P63 PRO-Lite is designed to meet Global Body Spec rules, making it suitable for use in sanctioned racing events and club competitions that follow these specifications. This ensures compatibility with championship-level racing worldwide. However, always verify that any specific club or event you're competing in accepts Global Body Spec shells — most modern racing organisations do, but it's worth confirming before purchasing.
- What tools do I need to fit this body to my chassis? — The P63 comes with M3 x 6 black screws for wing mounting, so you'll need an appropriate screwdriver or hex wrench to secure the wing. For mounting the body to your chassis, the tools you'll need depend on your specific chassis design — this might include hex wrenches, screwdrivers, or clips depending on how your chassis attaches body posts. The included mounting marks and alignment guides make positioning straightforward once you have your chassis in front of you.
- Is the 0.5mm thickness strong enough for racing? — Yes, the 0.5mm PRO-Lite thickness is specifically engineered as a good all-around option for serious competitors. It's significantly more durable than the fragile 0.4mm X-Lite version whilst remaining lighter than the 0.65mm Heavy Weight option. At 0.5mm, the polycarbonate provides excellent stiffness with the internal hood ribs preventing deflection under extreme cornering forces, combined with the strength to resist minor crashes and contact that inevitably happens during competitive racing.
