Yokomo BD12 US spec Alu chassis | Body Mounts

New from Yokomo for the 2024 season is this aluminium main chassis for its BD12 1:10 Electric Touring Car.  It is a highly rigid US specification with little wall removal, making it ideal for high-grip carpeted surfaces.  The centre of gravity is lowered, which is also effective as a high-side countermeasure.  The Japanese manufacturer also has new horizontal body mounts compatible with rear body posts that protrude rearward, such as BD12, these mounting parts reliably receive downforce and increase rear traction.  Compatible with Twister/Twister Special bodies, the mounting parts are secured to the body using the wing fixing screws. Offset can be adjusted by using the fixing direction of the parts and the included spacers. The height of the body can also be fine-tuned by adjusting spacers on the body post side, such as BD12. This optional part is highly beneficial for race users as it can minimise problems caused by body damage due to crashes, etc.
