VBC Racing have introduced the latest evolution of the Lightning 12 pan car platform, the 12M. The “M” stands for “Middle” and was the main driving force behind the car’s design that features a transverse battery configuration, adjustable floating servo mount, and an adjustable steering bell crank system. In addition to these features the car also sports a newly designed lightweight aluminium rear bulkhead and axle assembly, multiple side spring positions, and a highly tuneable front end. All plastic parts are made from VBC ultra-strong V2 composite while the alloy parts are machined from black anodised 7075 aluminium. New features also include an adjustable front chassis brace, direct or bellcrank steering setup, new rear axle mount with ride height spacers, as well as a rear axle brace that also acts as a dust cover for the ball bearings.
