STRC Slash 4×4 LCG chassis back with improvements

STRC Slash 4x4 LCG chassis back with some improvements

ST Racing Concepts’ popular LCG chassis conversion for the Traxxas Slash 4×4 short course truck is back with quite a few performance oriented revisions. A narrower CNC-machined 4mm aluminium chassis that is now 4mm narrower than previous makes for more agility during left/right cornering weight transfer while also being 30 grams lighter for a more nimble handling. The chassis now also has more clearance around rear A-arm sway bar mounting link. Included in the conversion is also a revised battery strap for easier battery removal while a redesigned rear suspension block improves durability. The conversion also comes with numerous other parts such as an alloy HD front bulkhead, alloy motor mount, carbon fibre upper deck and more and it is available in black or blue anodising.
