Aerox Cougar KC/KD buggy body shell

UK Aerox distributor Schumacher has introduced a new body shell for the Cougar KC/KD 2WD buggy. The body is designed to improve the aero package of the Cougar KD and particularly KC models. It has a super sleek design, is 13 grams lighter than a standard kit body which greatly reduces the centre of gravity and the chances of traction roll on high grip surfaces. Michal Orlowski used it to great effect at the recent EOS in Poland claiming 4th place from 3rd on the grid and he says: “The new Aerox bodyshell feels great to drive. Car is more agile and rolls round less so it makes you feel more confident. That makes you faster on the track. And it looks awesome too!” The body is supplied in crystal clear polycarbonate with over-spray film, window masks and decal sheet.
