Technical Overview for 3RACING Civic MK9

The 3RACING Civic MK9 Body is engineered as a single-piece polycarbonate shell for 1/10 on-road platforms, offering a lightweight, consistent shape that suits setup-focused drivers. The design emphasizes predictable aerodynamic behavior and easy preparation for race trim.

Compatibility Notes and Aerodynamic Intent

The shell is compatible with a broad range of 1/10 touring and competition chassis. Its profile is intended to reduce lift and manage airflow across the roof and rear section, aiding balance at race speeds and during quick direction changes.

Fitting and Setup Recommendations

Align the shell to your chassis and mark mounting points before cutting. For competition use, ensure secure fastenings at the front and rear to preserve body position under aerodynamic loads. Trim wheel arches conservatively and use paint masking to protect edges during finishing.

The Civic MK9 profile reduces turbulent airflow over the rear, offering more stable rear-end grip at higher speeds when paired with correct ride height.
Mid to low-slung 1/10 touring chassis and competition drift platforms work best; confirm wheelbase and track width before final mounting.
Use polycarbonate paint in thin layers, mask precisely for aerodynamic edges and avoid heavy paint buildup that could alter weight distribution.
Small arch enlargements or lightening of unneeded areas can be used to adjust balance, but avoid removing structural sections that secure mounts.
