Mugen MRX6X 1/8th nitro on-road kit
Coming soon from Mugen is their new MRX6X 1/8th scale nitro on-road kit. The MRX6X is inspired and based off the products used by Mugen Seiki driver, Shoki Takahata, to capture the 2019 IFMAR 1/8th On-Road World Championship title. The new features help to improve steering, rear traction, drive train efficiency, and drivability. First up is a new front suspension geometry. Updated front uprights and aluminium bearing holders give more overall steering and offer a more precise steering feel. The shape of the upper front arm also changed to accommodate the current bodies on the market. The new front shock tower and lower shock mounts sport a new geometry that increases steering in the middle to the exit of the turn. Another new part are also updated front drive shaft that allow increase steering angles and more overall steering and they are equipped with new front wheel levers while updated rear rear wheel levers are also standard equipment on the MRX6X and allow easier installing/removing of the wheels. Also new is an updated rear suspension geometry. The new rear upper A-arms and rear upper arm plate help improve rear traction. The drivetrain now utilises 0.8M pinion and spur gears that will increase drive train efficiency for increased acceleration and runtime. Also new is an updated roll bar for easier refuelling. This will allow quicker pit stops.
