Exotek Losi steering brace & HPI LiPo chassis

Exotek Racing release an alloy steering brace for Losi’s XXX-series of buggies and trucks and an upgrade chassis for an old school favourite, the HPI Pro4. The steering brace reduces the flex in the steering cranks by bracing the steering mount and eliminating the unwanted flex created by the plastic front bulkhead. Giving a more precise steering response the brace is a hot ticket on all high grip or highly rutted track surfaces. Compatible with any of the Losi XXX-series 2WDs.
