MIP YZ2 DTM2.0 Puck 17.5 drive system

MIP’s popular Puck 17.5 drive system is now also available for Yokomo YZ2 DTM2.0 buggy. Its been a long process to get everything just right with the S3 and S4 arms and the amount of tuning options in the Yokomo YZ2. The lightweight, aluminium-based system is a replacement for the standard steel items and includes a 2-piece aluminium outdrive cup and aluminium outdrive hub assembly, two pairs of Bi-metal bones (for S3 & S4), and the replaceable plastic orange wear Pucks™ that take the place of the inferior steel pins. This combination greatly increases the longevity of the drivetrain and most importantly decreases the drivetrain’s overall rotating mass by about 50 percent. The decrease in weight directly results in quicker acceleration, deceleration, and lower motor temps, making it ideal for 17.5T stock racing classes.

JConcepts 1993 Ford F-250 Stampede body shell

Another new Traxxas Stampede body shell from JConcepts is the 1993 Ford F-250. For the ninth generation, the body-shell of the 1993 F-Series was given another major upgrade and now a direct fit for the Traxxas Stampede. To further improve its aerodynamics, the forward bodywork was given a slightly lower hood line, and a rounding of the front fenders and grille. The “Blue Oval,” a trademark of all Ford pickups, makes a striking appearance centered in the grille. Stout fender flares are carved ever so carefully in to the panels while openings allow for a vast assortment of tires on the market. The F-250 single-cab look is strong and is a careful reminder of a time when passengers sat side-by-side during a typical outing. The body comes clear and includes an authentic decal sheet and easy to use window mask for the detailed hobbyist and it fits the original Stampede truck as well as the Skully, Craniac and Bigfoot kits.
