Coming from Reflex Racing are several new optionals for the Team Associated TC7.2 touring car. First up is the bumper brace kit that includes a hard, wide front bumper. The set protect the car from hard boards and collisions. Wider and thicker than the standard bumper, the bumper can save the chassis in the event of a hard crash as especially when running indoors, the car’s front suspension is far more protected than with the stock parts.
