RDRP DEX210 Plus11 chassis

New from Revolution Design Racing Products comes the Plus11 chassis for the Team Durango DEX210 buggy. The chassis is designed to replace the kit chassis with an 11 millimeter longer variant. Extensive testing showed that the Plus11 chassis outperforms both the standard length kit as well as all original or aftermarket +8mm chassis in terms of weight balance, jumping characteristics, handling and overall performance by creating a buggy that is easier to drive and easier to set-up. Precision CNC-machined from 7075-T6 aluminium and anodised black for a more durable finish the RDRP Plus11 chassis is more than twice as rigid as the Team Durango standard chassis for a more precise on-track feeling and improved durability.
