Yeah Racing adjustable on-road body mounts

Yeah Racing have introduced their new adjustable body mounts for the 6mm body posts of most 1/10th on-road cars. Machined from high-quality aluminium and coming black anodised for looks and protection, the body mounts offer an adjustable design by simply rotating the mount on the post to access the different level mounting holes and then fixing the platforms with the included screws. This ensures the selected height will always stay the same compared to the popular threaded twist-type mounts whose height adjustment can change over time. The set included four body mounts and four mounting screws.

JConcepts P2K YZ-2 body buggy body shell

JConcepts have introduced their new P2K body shell for the Yokomo YZ-2 2WD buggy. An evolution of the P2 body, the “K” is sleeker by removing rear down-force features to allow the buggy to turn on the tightest circuits and carpet and astroturf surfaces where traction is always plentiful. The entire centre section of the cab on the P2K has a channel based design to flow directly over the middle of the vehicle to stabilise the at-speed handling. The front of the cab, important to performance, includes the P2 position with heavily recessed front windshield. The JConcepts edge treatment remains on the side-capsule area for air-flow direction by the cab and pointing the force to the rear wing area. The chamfering stands out as a JConcepts design feature on every new shell, the P2K has those elements and in great positions for decals and paint allocation. The P2K takes into account, spur covers and drops over the kit supplied setup. Rear louvers tuck into the rear stance of the shell which can always be customer trimmed for a slight amount of heat escape. The body included two S-type rear wings for durability, rear traction and high-speed tracking.

Leadfinger Racing RB7 A2 Tactic body shell

The A2 Tactic body for the popular Kyosho Ultima RB7 is the next addition of 2WD bodies from Leadfinger Racing for 2019. Like the A2 Tactic bodies before it, the RB7 body has an added roof vent that allows for better cooling for today’s sensitive electronics. Running cooler has its advantages and feeding cool air directly over the power house is a welcomed upgrade. Behind that, LFR has designed a top fin that joins into a rear swoop for added stability and increased rear down force. The combination of the two help give the Kyosho Ultima RB7 a balanced and precise feel during mid corner rotation and on power exit. The body comes in clear polycarbonate ready for paint and including two pre-cut Tactic wings, stickers and window masks.
