Fantasy Car 02 GT3 Wing in Flexible Rubber

When the wing stops being the weak point of the GT3

Any driver who has participated in a long slot session knows that the rear wing is the first victim of incidents. A track exit, a side touch, or a high-speed roll usually means broken plastic and a race ended prematurely. Sideways has solved this problem with the reference SWFC02A: the rear wing of the Fantasy Car 02 GT3 made entirely of high-resistance flexible rubber.

Function and performance

The elastomeric material used in this wing allows it to completely deform upon impact — whether it’s a frontal collision, a side touch, or a roll — and instantly recover its original geometry, without permanent deformations or cracks. This eliminates one of the most common failure points in any slot GT3 and allows the car to continue running with its rear aerodynamics intact throughout the competition.

Despite the flexibility of the material, the design faithfully reproduces the shape of the original wing of the Fantasy Car 02 GT3, maintaining the aerodynamic load on the rear axle that this model requires.

Compatibility and installation

This wing is specifically designed for the body of the Fantasy Car 02 GT3 by Sideways. It installs directly onto the original body mounts, with no need for modifications or additional adhesives. The fit is firm and the procedure is completely straightforward.

The neutral black finish allows it to be mounted as is or prepared with specific rubber primers if one wishes to customise the colour through painting — brands like Vallejo or Tamiya offer formulations compatible with elastomeric surfaces. In any case, the impact absorption capability remains regardless of the final finish.

Common mistakes

It is common to try to repair broken rigid plastic wings with cyanoacrylate glues. The result is usually a fragile wing that breaks again at the first hit. Replacing it directly with this flexible rubber version is the definitive solution: there are no cracks to repair or weak points to monitor.

It is also advisable not to force the fit with sharp tools: the flexibility of the material allows for a clean manual installation without the risk of damaging the body mounts.

Ideal for…

• Endurance and resistance competitions where each part must withstand hours of running.
• Slot clubs with heavy track traffic and a higher likelihood of incidents.
• Drivers who are perfecting their driving skills and want to protect the body during learning.
• Any owner of the Fantasy Car 02 GT3 who wants to have a functional and durable spare part on hand.

Frequently asked questions

Is this wing compatible with all versions of the Fantasy Car 02 GT3 by Sideways?

It is designed for the Fantasy Car 02 GT3 by Sideways. If you have doubts about the specific version of your body, consult the reference SWFC02A with the official Sideways spare parts catalogue.

Do I need adhesive to install it?

No. The wing fits directly onto the original mounts of the Fantasy Car 02 GT3 body. The flexibility of the material facilitates manual installation without tools.

Can I paint it to customise it?

Yes. As it is an elastomeric surface, it is recommended to first apply a specific rubber primer before painting. Brands like Vallejo or Tamiya offer products compatible with this type of material.

Does the flexible rubber affect the aerodynamic load or the car's behaviour on track?

The design faithfully replicates the geometry of the original wing, so the aerodynamic load on the rear axle is maintained. The flexibility only acts upon impacts, not during normal running.

Does it permanently deform over time or with heat?

The high-resistance rubber compound used is designed to recover its original shape after the usual impacts in slot. For optimal performance, avoid prolonged exposure to direct heat sources.

The Sideways SWFC02A is a flexible rubber rear wing designed as a direct replacement part for the Fantasy Car 02 GT3 body. Its high-resistance elastomeric compound absorbs impacts and instantly recovers its original shape, making it the go-to choice for endurance slot car racing, club sessions, and any situation where durability matters. Direct fit, no adhesives required. A must-have spare part for Sideways Fantasy Car 02 GT3 owners looking for a long-lasting, crash-resistant spoiler solution.
