Mugen Seiki MSB1 1:10 2WD Buggy

Having been given a first look at their first foray into the 1:10 2WD Buggy class at the IFMAR 1:10 Offroad World Championship in Arizona last September, Mugen Seiki has now officially released its MSB1 kit.  This is a hugely significant launch for the Japanese manufacturer who despite its small size is a major force in the 1:8 Buggy competition market.  A brand that punches well above its weight given the actually size of the company, the MSB1 has the potential to bring them a whole new customer base and as well as open up an all year round season due to the popularity of indoor 1:10 offroad racing.  Designed by Shin Adacahi, the MSB1 was conceived from years of testing and development.  It is designed to be used for multi-purpose purposes on dirt, carpet and astro road surfaces.  The slim aluminium chassis provide exceptional precision and stability when jumping and cornering with the kit including front and rear stabiliser, highly adjustable gear differential and 13mm shocks.  The design of the rear suspension is unique and adjustable than other vehicles in this class.  The height of the deferential is adjustable, giving you quick and easy access to the deferential.  MSB1 kit also includes cab forward body shell, front wing and rear wing.
