Yokomo have released the ZX, the pinnacle of their YD-2 series RWD drift car. Featuring a flexible high traction graphite double deck chassis, the steering servo is now mounted on the chassis and the upper deck is also flexible for a smoother steering feel without interfering with the flex of the main chassis. The Z-spec gearbox is equipped with a special heat sink motor mount and the motor is set to a high mount allowing the battery to be relocated to the rear end and the weight to be placed closer to the rear axle for better traction without compromising performance. Gorgeous aluminium parts such as the front bulkhead, suspension mount, shock towers, and big bore shocks are used to create a high quality machine configuration. Available in three highlight colours, red, black and purple.
