JConcepts 2018 Ford Mustang Cobra Jet body

When Ford Performance revealed the quickest drag racing Mustang ever, it was just a matter of time before it made it to the RC scene. The new JConcepts Ford Mustang in Cobra Jet trim is perfect for vehicles such as the DR10, 22-S, and Drag Slash and the ever-growing range of performance and outlaw-based race cars. In racing classes which encourage a street-able machine, less bolt-on parts and accessories, the Mustang might be the perfect shell for racers trying to preserve stock looks or while racing the popular 13.5 class. The overall look of the car’s design is very muscular, chiseled in detail on the front-end include upper and lower grille placement and a built-in and progressive splitter. The headlights have an angular and scowled look placing the focus into a straight-line. Formed in to the body shell, the front scoop synonymous with the Cobra Jet has the perfect blend and stance showing off a low-profile look. The large format front windshield and split side-windows are proportioned to the fast-looking canopy. The rear window spills off on to the rear deck which can be driven stock with no wing or add the included rear wing for added rear downforce.
