Coming from MST and made for their J4 body shell is an inner fender set. The kit helps to create a realistic full-body look while adding protection from dust, dirt, mud and debris for the inner parts of the chassis and when running in challenging trail conditions. The inner fenders attach to the chassis and they are of a durable yet lightweight design.
MST have a new TSP high traction drift car wheel available that can provide improved overall traction especially in low grip conditions. Available in sets of four and in +5mm and +7mm offset, the white split spoke wheel is moulded from a special plastic material for optimised flex characteristics and thus better tyre grip when needed.
Coming soon from MST is their CS-R drift car tyre for high-grip carpet tracks. The tyre is usable with most drift car wheels and due to its design it is usable with up to 7 degrees of wheel camber.

MST have released first renderings of their forthcoming new FXX 2.0S intermediate-level RWD drift car chassis. Based on the FXX 2.0 KMW’s centralised chassis design the 2.0S utilises a redesigned RWD-specific front suspension for improved steering throw while the MB rear suspension system allows to adjust rear wheel steering characteristics. In addition to that a secondary reduction transmission ensures optimised throttle control compared to conventional drivetrain setups. Other features include a newly developed motor mount and an integrated steering system with alloy steering plate. Full details will become available in time of the kit release.
Yeah Racing have announced the release of their new carbon fibre upgrade set for the MST RMX2.0 drift car. The set replaces all of the original plastic parts with matte finish carbon fibre items that optimise the chassis’ flex characteristics while adding visual impact. Cutouts in specific areas further fine-tune the overall flex which leads to improved grip during cornering. Included in the set are the lower main chassis, the split top deck, front and rear shock towers as well as mounting hardware.
