JConcepts S2 bodyshell for TLR 22 3.0

Making its debut at the recent IFMAR Worlds in Japan, JConcepts have introduced a TLR 22 3.0 version of their new S2 bodyshell. 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 and tight fit and finish. Cut-lines are included on each side of the body to accommodate 3 or 4 gear transmission layouts giving all out versatility. Available in standard and lightweight versions.

JConcepts T5M Hi-Flow truck bodyshell

Coming soon from JConcepts is the Hi-Flow bodyshell for the Team Associated T5M stadium truck. The all-new race body is inspired by the looks of a class leading pick-up, loaded with performance features and it sports a low-profile design and beefy fenders. Extruded front and rear fender flares offer maximum tyre clearance and the slight hood-scoop raised portion helps bulk up the front-end and provides clearance for the T5M geometry. The rear bed has built-in clearance for the massive big bore shocks and tower to help maintain that sleek appearance. The body includes a spoiler on the back of the body mould which can be trimmed and detailed to drop right on to the rear and secured with the two included JConcepts button head screws. As an added performance benefit, the body offers several “trim-zone” areas on the rear of the bed which can be removed to help reduce the slight parachute affect brought on by open wheel trucks. As usual the body comes clear, including window masks and a decal sheet.

JConcepts Hazard radio wheel

JConcepts’ popular Hazard short course wheel is now available in “steering wheel size” to outfit the Airtronics/Sanwa M12 and MT4 radios. The Hazard radio wheel is precision moulded like its siblings but sized appropriately for one of the most successful radio lines on the market. The inside of the wheel features the hex location and mount-up point from the stock assembly but also the location notches in just the right places. Between the inside and outside beads, tiny ribs help align the foam grip and help lock it into place. Holes are located on the bottom side for the standard access to the steering stops while a couple vent holes help the wheel look like the real thing. Included with the wheel is a pre-installed Dirt-Tech foam grip.
