JConcepts Punisher body for RC8.2 FT

JConcepts have released their Punisher body for the Associated RC8.2 FT. The RC8.2 features a slightly longer chassis and the Punisher body is a drop-fit for this updated version of the championship winning buggy. Blended wing / body design gives additional downforce to the side pods and windshield which increases drivability, corner speed and jump control. The rear base of the cab area represents the latest offering for 1/8th buggy racing featuring a super low profile design for increased engine cooling, air flow and escape.
