RDRP Team Associated B6 brass C & D mounts

Revolution Design Racing Products have introduced the C and D brass rear arm mounts for the Team Associated B6 and B6D. The suspension hangers are direct replacements for the kit parts and they add valuable weight especially when running in low-traction conditions or when the track is getting bumpier. Machined from black-coated brass and sporting gold-colour chamfered edges, the heavy suspension hangers shift the weight bias further back for improved traction. The mounts can be used together or separately with the C mount, in front of the rear axle, greatly reducing the unwanted pendulum effect very rear mounted weights can create. Both the C and D mount are available separately from now on.
