JConcepts S2 Cat L1 Evo buggy body shell

JConcepts’ S2 body line up has been expanded to include the Schumacher Cat L1 Evo 4wd buggy. Slammed overall height allows the S2 to whisk through the turns with a low centre of mass while the progressive cab design provides plenty of front-end force for superior balance and steering. A channeled roof directs the flow through the centre of the body while also increasing the rigidity of cockpit. The dual side-window design that has become famous on the JConcepts bodies remains to bring a traditional feel to the layout. The upper side-pods feature distinct vents used to help relieve hot air build-up inside the body for those high-powered runs or hot days at the track. Carved and detailed side-pods edge the body giving the highly aero unit a stylish look with a tight fit and finish. Included with the clear body shell come two S-Type wings as well as window masks and a decal sheet.

Pro-Line 1972 Ford Pinto clear body

This new size opens the door to bring new people into the world of drag racing using a chassis platform that many people already own. All the iconic details from the original 1972 Pinto have been faithfully recreated in 1/10 size that looks incredible with big drag tires.

The oversized 16mm outer diameter is preferred by factory drivers as it reduces wing flex, aiding in rear-end stability. Precision machined from 7076-T6 aluminium and finished with dark black anodising and mirror-like chamfers for exceptional looks and durability.
