Yokomo YD-2RX Teams Edition drift car

Yokomo have introduced a limited edition ‘Teams’ version of their YD-2RX drift car.

The suspension is also fully tuned with SLF big bore shocks, Team’s tapered shock pistons, titanium coated shock shafts and high grade O-rings, combined with the latest drifting springs for a competitive suspension. Other features include brass rear suspension mounts to improve rear traction, a LW integrated bulkhead to reduce front weight and a lightweight slide rack for weight balance.
