The kit allows to utilise “bleeder”-type shock caps over the standard diaphragm design for added shock adjustability when conditions call for it. The caps are machined from high-quality 7075-T6 aluminium, they come hard anodised for wear and looks and the set also includes all needed mounting hardware. The shock caps are usable with the MP10 as well as the MP9 TKI4, TKI3 and MP9E and MP9E Evo kits. Source: T-Works [rc-tworks.com]…

Coming from T-Works and made for Kyosho’s Inferno MP10 1/8th nitro buggy kit is a hard-anodised lightweight chassis plate set. The main plate is machined from aircraft-grade 7075-T6 aluminium and it comes hard-anodised for wear and durability. Strategically milled sections reduce the overall weight and ensure ideal flex characteristics. Included with the chassis comes a stainless steel rear skid plate with the chassis protector ensuring greater overall durability when running on abrasive surfaces or tracks with large jumps.
