Bittydesign Force body for Xray XB808

Bittydesign have introduced their new Force body and mud guards for the Xray XB808 2011. The new shell follows the same lines as the previously available Force bodies with the extreme cab forward treatment for improved handling and to improve cooling to the engine. This shell also features 2 additional big air scoops on the side for improved downforce with additional room under the cab for the air filter. Made in Italy using high quality lexan, the shell is sold with decal sheets, window mask and protective film, all at a very good price. The mud guards, which are mounted on the front face of the rear wishbones are also made from genuine lexan polycarbonate.

JConcepts Rustler over-tray

When racing or bashing on a loamy or top soil track surface the inside of the Rustler chassis can become loaded with dirt or debris which creates extra weight. With the JConcepts over-tray these worries are minimized with the simple and functional over-tray. Fitting nicely under the body it hugs the outside dimension of the Rustler chassis protecting the inside from unwanted excess dirt and debris build-up during racing conditions. By minimizing resting surface area the void and protrusion free design is all about performance.

JConcepts Hi-Clearance wing for TLR 22

JConcepts have released their Hi-Clearance wing as a direct fit for the TLR 22. 1/10th buggies are very dependent on the rear wing for traction, flight control and balance. The Hi-Clearance wing incorporates several important elements making it the most versatile wing yet. JConcepts has joined the high-performance wing into a paired combination that is easier to trim, detail and finish and each performance wing package now includes 2 wings for added value to the customer. The Hi-Clearance feature provides extra clearance for the expansion of tires during high acceleration points and especially on high speed straight-aways and also allows for full suspension movement during hard landings and full compression during cornering.
