JConcepts ET48 2.0 F2 Truggy Body

JConcepts has released their F2 body shell for the Tekno ET48 2.0. The F2 body was constructed to perform at the highest level using the latest trend of reducing surface area above the shock tower line, reducing the overall weight while maintaining a tight silhouette. No stranger to Truggy bodies, the JConcepts team has developed a successful line of bodies with the Punisher and Finnisher designs, and each has excelled and peaked during championship events. For the 2023 Dirt Nitro Challenge event, the team focused on a behind tower concept body to fit the Tekno ET48 2.0. What stands out on the JConcepts body is the raised nose that planes off the front shock tower. This design and styling were chosen over the buggy style mount to provide a better look, a cleaner and more durable fit, and better flowing aerodynamics. The F2 name arrived after the team decided on using an existing style from the 1/10th stadium truck body already in the JConcepts line-up. The narrow shape, double upper railed cab with inner louvers are undeniable traits carried over to the new Truggy performance body.

Xray XB4’23 Carbon Fibre Chassis Side Guards

Xray has released new carbon fibre chassis side guards for their XB4’23 1:10 4WD Buggy. The moulded carbon fibre side guards are extremely light with more than a 50% weight reduction compared to standard composite side guards while providing more rigidity. These side guards are stiffer in the longitudinal direction to improve stability but still allow for some chassis twist that can help generate traction. Moulded from high-quality carbon fibre, the side guards perfectly fit the chassis plate to seal against dirt and protect from side impacts. To improve protection against dust, Velcro double-sided tape is included to ensure a perfect seal of the body to the side guards, and to reduce the noise level during operation. The set includes left and right side guards.
