The most recognisable, most‑raced and most‑comped oval chassis in the UK.
The Kamtec 1300 Stock Car Kit is the true workhorse of the British 1/12th‑scale oval scene. If you’ve ever watched a 1300 heat, entered a Rookie Banger comp, or seen a Ministox grid lined up at a club night, you’ve already seen this chassis in action. It’s everywhere — and for good reason.
This kit represents the perfect balance of simplicity, durability and affordability, making it the go‑to platform for beginners, club racers, and seasoned oval drivers alike.
The GRP chassis gives it the strength needed for close‑contact racing, while the one‑piece rear pod keeps the drivetrain smooth, stable and easy to maintain.
Add the included 21‑turn motor and K1 ESC, and you have a reliable, club‑friendly setup that works straight out of the box.
What makes the 1300 so iconic is not just its performance — it’s the versatility. This single chassis can run dozens of shells across multiple classes, from classic 1300 Stock Cars to Rookie Bangers, Ministox and even retro builds. It’s the platform that lets racers experiment, learn, upgrade and grow without needing to switch cars every season.
Why racers choose the 1300:

Ideal for club racing and competitions

Perfect for newcomers
