JConcepts MBX-6 Punisher & 2.2″ Flip Outs

JConcepts MBX-6 Punisher & 2.2" Flip Outs

New from JConcepts is the Punisher body for the Mugen MBX-6. The radical new Punisher body features the slight cab-forward treatment which is amongst the most aggressive in class giving the Punisher top notch performance. Blended wing / body design gives additional down-force 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. Also new are these Flip Outs, giving drivers that tire in-between the Goose Bumps and Double Dees they have asked for.  A very small pin construction makes up the foundation for the Flip Outs design and gives the grip when the conditions are wet and green in the morning, when traction is sometimes hard to come-by. These tires are now available in green compound for both the 2.2″ 4wd front wheel and the 2.2″ truck wheel.

JConcepts Ford Raptor SVT SCT-R body

JConcepts has reached new ground with the Short Course version of the popular Ford Raptor SVT body for competition Short Course racing, hanging the acronym SCT-R on the new body with the R giving it racing credibility. Officially licensed by JConcepts, the Ford Raptor SVT body is inspired from the ground up as an all-out SCT race body. Beginning with the latest in 1:1 truck detail by incorporating the latest treatment in grill and headlight design, adding street appeal, the front and rear fender flares provide the clearance necessary to run an assortment of tires and wheels while maintaining that exclusive design and look. Extended cab design with recessed side windows, louvers along the front hood highlight a number of the front-end styling cues, while deep recessed trim-out locations along the hood and bed area provide ample space for air relief cut-outs which reduce the parachute / blow-over affect that is so common in Short Course racing.
