JConcepts S2 B64-series buggy body shell

JConcepts have introduced the S2 body shell for the Team Associated B64 series of 1/10th 4WD off-road buggies. Sporting the distinctive Silencer 2 design with slammed overall height and a progressive cab design the body is meant to deliver good balance and steering. A channeled roof directs the flow through the center of the body while also increasing the rigidity of the cockpit. The dual side-window design that has become famous on the JC 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. The body fits both the B64 and B64D and it comes clear, including window masks, decal sheet and two Aero rear wings.
