JConcepts has introduced the S2 body for Schumacher’s popular CAT L1R 4WD chassis. The new shell has some familiar features but rolled together with a low-profile stance. With 2015 IFMAR Championship credibility backing this design, the S2 includes the Carpet/Turf/Dirt rear wing to help deliver results on any racing circuit. Slammed overall height allows the S2 to whisk through the turns with a low centre of mass while the progressive cab design provides plenty of front-end force for superior balance and steering. A channeled roof directs the flow through the centre of the body while also increasing the rigidity of cockpit. The dual side-window design that has become famous on the JConcepts bodies remains to bring a traditional feel to the layout.

The STRC high quality mount completely locks the steering servo in place and allows maximum transfer of power from the servo to the steering linkage. Available now in black, gun metal, orange, red and silver anodising.
