JConcepts MBX-6 Eco Punisher body & Punisher wing

The Punisher body by JConcepts for the Mugen MBX-6 Eco is now available. The slight cab-forward treatment is amongst the most aggressive in class giving the Punisher top notch performance. Blended wing / body design gives additional downforce to the side-pods and windshield which increases driveability, corner speed and jump control. The rear base of the cab area represents the latest offering for 1/8th E-buggy racing featuring a super low profile design for increased air flow, escape and body placement and the lower rear deck area provides less directional loading at the rear of the vehicle for quick rotation in the tightest corners. JConcepts have also released their new Punisher wing, which we first saw at the World Championships in Pattaya last year. The wing features a flat deck, high-wicker design giving increased rear downforce. This trend busting design includes 4 different interchangeable side-dams for increased tuning options and vehicle compatibility, while extensive ribbing and support create additional flow channels underneath the deck surface with a larger outer rib closest to the side-dam. The underside of the deck also comes with a raised grid area which makes aligning to different model vehicles easier.
