JConcepts has released its popular P2 body for the latest 2WD Buggy offering from Team Associated, the RC10B7 and RC10B7D.  A staple in the Florida company’s product line, the Punisher body shell design, started its time in the offroad during the 2010 racing season.  Over the course of a decade, the design team along with the racers have helped push the envelope and re-invent the Punisher along the way.  The P2 design arrived just in time for the IFMAR Worlds in 2017 where the team tested and confirmed performance characteristics on the Xiamen, China track surface.  Now, the P2 has been updated to fit the RC10B7 and is available in both a standard and lightweight option and includes two of the 6.5” Carpet | Turf | Dirt wings.
