JConcepts B6 S2 bodyshell with Aero wing set

JConcepts B6 S2 bodyshell with Aero wing set

JConcepts have introduced the S2 bodyshell and Aero wing package for the Team Associated B6 buggy. Slammed overall height allows the S2 to whisk through the turns with a low centre of mass while the progressive cab design provides plenty of front-end force for balance and steering. A channeled roof directs the flow through the center of the body while also increasing the rigidity of cockpit. The dual side-window design that has become famous on the JConcepts bodies remains to bring a traditional feel to the layout. The upper side-pods feature distinct vents used to help relieve hot air build-up inside the body for those high-powered runs or hot days at the track. Carved and detailed side-pods edge the body giving the highly aero unit a stylish look with a tight fit and finish. Cut-lines are included on each side of the body to accommodate stand-up 3 or 4-gear and lay-down transmission layouts. Included with the body, that is available in a regular and light-weight version come two Aero rear wings.
