Yokomo introduce YZ-2 carpet & dirt kits

Yokomo will soon have two new YZ-2 buggy kits available in the form of the YZ-2CA and YZ-2DT. Both build on the previous and now discontinued YZ-2 buggy and they feature a new aluminium main chassis and dedicated gearbox designs for high-grip carpet or low-grip dirt applications. The YZ-2CA carpet and astro turf specific car, as used by Yokomo factory driver Lee Martin during last weekend’s third round of the 2015/16 EOS, comes with a newly designed low layshaft “carpet spec” 3-gear transmission with new idler gear, long suspension arms, and a lightweight body, making the buggy ideal for all high-grip applications.

The YZ-2DT utilises with a high layshaft “dirt spec” 3-gear transmission, ball differential and composite shock tower all of which will make for smoother car reactions on lower grip surfaces as well as add traction and driveability. Also included in the kit is a dirt cover for the transmission gears. The carpet car will be ship by beginning of March with the dirt spec car should become available around end of March.
