What the Yokomo R12 Brings to 1/12 Racing

The Yokomo R12 is a purpose-built 1/12 on-road pan car platform targeted at competitors who prefer to tune and refine handling. Its component layout supports precise setup work for track use.

Chassis Engineering and Drivetrain

Featuring a 2.5mm carbon chassis made for 1S LiPo mounting, the car balances rigidity with useful flex. The high precision ball differential and full ball bearings contribute to smooth power delivery and minimal friction losses.

Suspension and Stability Features

The front double-wishbone suspension with oil dampers gives consistent steering response, while the front anti-roll bar tunes roll behaviour. The rear link suspension with oil dampers helps maintain traction and composure under acceleration.

Tuning Range and Handling

Adjustable rear ride height allows setup changes to suit different grip levels. Lightweight diff rings, a long carbon rear shaft and centre offset lightweight wheels help sharpen handling and rotation.

Complete-Your-Own Setup

This kit is supplied without bodywork, tyres, ESC, motor, radio gear, servo or battery to let builders choose parts that match class rules and personal preferences.

Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Yokomo items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Will this kit work with standard 1/12 ESCs?

Yes, standard compact 1/12 ESCs designed for single-cell LiPo setups will fit. Check physical dimensions against the chassis tray before purchasing.

How should I approach initial setup for the first run?

Start with neutral toe and camber settings, medium damper oil and a conservative diff preload. Make one change at a time and log results to build a reliable baseline.

Is wheel alignment complicated on this car?

Alignment is straightforward but precise. Use a setup gauge for camber and toe measurements and make small incremental adjustments to observe handling changes.

What maintenance keeps it race ready?

Regular checks of bearings, diff balls and suspension bushings are important. Clean and lubricate moving parts and replace worn tyres to retain consistent lap times.
