Coming from Xray and made for their X1 formula pan car as well as many other Formula cars is their new lightweight and wide rear wing. The highly efficient wing was developed to offer efficient downforce in combination with the X1’s body shell with the lid’s rear flow channels guiding the air towards the rear wing for improved downforce and stability.

New from JConcepts is the F2I rear wing for 1/8th scale off-road buggies and trucks. F2I relates to Finnisher related items morphing into a 2nd generation and this new wing fits the bill perfectly. Adding the “I” relates to it being IFMAR competition legal in terms of its side-dams being large enough to comply with rules and procedure on the world-wide racing scene. Aerodynamics are quite the buzz and the design of the wing is rather traditional with a flat base. Across the width, the five individual dividers add straight-line stability and connects the upper and lower deck. Drop louvers on each side split the deck-height funneling air flow through the core and up to the gurney. The industry first design featuring a built-in gurney eliminates the need to add additional pieces, hardware or items which are clumsy. As with all JConcepts injection moulded wings, the side dams are recessed for decals to rest without being exposed directly across its plane. The offset decal plane also provides some stability to the highly impacted area and removes a slight about of weight. To make mounting easier, JConcepts has added a handy grid area underneath to help position the wing side to side and fore and aft for the utmost versatility. The wing is available in white, black and yellow colour.
