JConcepts RC10 Classic Detonator body

With the return of Team Associated’s RC10 Classic JConcepts introduce the Detonator body shell. The spirit of the Detonator lives in the 1980’s, starting with the rear biased, over rear tower, hung cab, large window detail and roll-bar treatment outlining the stout individual pillars. The side-pods are simple, yet effectively cover the aluminium tub chassis and multiple side windows, including the vintage back window, stand out as class leading details. Included in each Detonator package is a 5.5” wing that is designed to sit flat on the geometry of the body and sits down and hugs the back of the body. A full selection of gurney options on the rear of the wing gives racers a selection of heights to trim to, depending on the level of traction. The wing side-dams are finished off with a little inspiration from today with the leading edge angled and already in attack mode. The body comes clear and includes the 5.5″ wing, window masks and decals.
