JConcepts B44.1 Finnisher body

After releasing the Finnisher body shell for the Associated B4.1 JConcepts now comes up with the 4WD variant in the form of the B44.1 Finnisher shell. Designed with aspects learned from the Punisher line of bodies, the new design provides an even more aggressive look with included details which remain crucial to performance. The increased windshield angle provides a steady force upfront during mid-flight wind gusts on large jumps and forward cab placement changes the performance and visible bias which helps steering rotation in low traction corners. The side-pods have been simplified and JC chamfered to remove unwanted changes in height to neutralise the at-speed handling. The B44.1 Finnisher body is a drop fit for the Associated B44.1 buggy and comes including two 6.5″ wide Hi-Clearance rear wings used by Ryan Maifield at the IFMAR World Championships.
