Yeah Racing M07 Sport conversion kit

Yeah Racing have introduced their new M07 Sport conversion kit, based off of the recently announced Competition chassis conversion kit.

The chassis conversion allows for 210mm, 225mm and 239mm wheelbases settings, allowing to use virtually any M-chassis class body shell. The kit also enables the user to use standard or bumper-mounted front body posts which further expands the body shell options. The kit includes high-quality fibre-reinforced chassis and shock tower parts as well as black anodised aluminium optionals.
