FAQs for Hot Bodies Racing Parts
I own an HB Racing vehicle — can I still get spares?
Yes. We do not currently stock complete Hot Bodies vehicles, but we do support existing HB Racing owners with a targeted parts range. If you run a Vorza or similar HB platform, our Australian stock focuses on the wear items most likely to be needed between race weekends. Having your chassis manual and parts diagram handy makes it much easier to match the correct spare, especially since HB platforms have gone through several revisions over the years with subtly different part numbers.
Why do racers still run older Hot Bodies platforms?
Hot Bodies, trading as HB Racing, produced some genuinely competitive 1/8 racing platforms that still hold up at club level today. The Vorza in particular earned a loyal following for its chassis geometry, drivetrain feel and tuning range. Because parts are still available for high-wear items like shocks and tyres, owners can keep these platforms on the track for many seasons. For experienced racers who already know their chassis inside out, sticking with a proven HB setup can be more rewarding than switching brands.
Which HB Racing parts do you stock in Australia?
Our Australian warehouse keeps around 15 Hot Bodies lines, focused on Vorza-family shock components, 3.3" tyres and Megabite tyres that remain in demand for existing owners. We do not stock complete HB Racing vehicles. If you need a specific HB part not currently on the shelf, get in touch — some lines can be special ordered depending on factory availability. Either way, having the core wear items in local stock helps keep long-running HB chassis on the track rather than sidelined.
What tyres work well on an HB Racing Vorza?
The 3.3" tyre size is the standard fit for the Vorza and similar 1/8 scale HB platforms, with Megabite-style tread patterns being a popular choice for loose and loamy surfaces. Tyre choice always depends on your local track conditions — harder compounds last longer on abrasive tracks while softer compounds grip better on smoother clay. Talk to other racers at your club about what tread and compound is working on the day, then match your HB setup accordingly for the best lap times.
