VBC WildfireD09 red dot plastics & CF centre brace

Coming from VBC Racing and made for the WildfireD09 and also older Wildfire kits are several new option parts. First up are red dot composite suspension parts such as steering blocks, front C-hubs and rear uprights. The red-marked composite material is VBC Racing’s stiffest yet and it is suitable for very high traction conditions, improving the car’s precision. Also new and made for the D09 variant are two carbon fibre Centre IsoFlex Linkage braces in 2mm and 2.5mm specifications. The braces replace the standard turnbuckle linkage and allow to fine-tune the car’s flex characteristics with the thinner brace being softer and the thicker brace being harder, reducing the car’s tendency to flex under load.
