JConcepts 22 2.0 Finnisher mid motor bodyshell

JConcepts introduce the Finnisher bodyshell specially designed for the TLR 22 2.0 2WD buggy in mid motor configuration. Development with the help of Ryan Maifield, the Finnisher for the 22 is a completely tightened design, slimming the overall look of the vehicle. The body sports a smoother high-speed transition with increased flow past the side-pods that lends itself perfect to high-speed circuits. A single angle starting near the steering assembly ending at the widest point in the middle of the chassis adds driving consistency and improved “at-speed” handling. As track conditions have advanced through additives, treatments and maintenance, the ultimate aero package flows through the turns, produces traction and jumps with consistency. Included with the body come two 6.5″ wide Hi-Clearance wings.

Muchmore Flex O-Rings for 1/10th shock absorbers

New from Muchmore come 1/10th shock absorber O-rings in three hardnesses. Developed with the help of 3-times World Champion Marc Rheinard the O-rings are available in 40 shore, 50 shore and 60 shore hardness that help to fine-tune the shocks to various track conditions. The harder 50 and 60 shore rings are ideal for carpet tracks while the softer 40 shore rings are best used in low-grip and low temperature conditions. A special silicone material makes the rings much less prone to swelling under the influence of silicone shock oil, they come in sets of 8 rings and are usable for many 1/10th on-road and off-road kits.
