New in the Pits – JConcepts

Making their trackside debut at the 2015 JConcepts Indoor National Finals, JConcepts brought a number of new items to Omaha for their team drivers which will be available for general release very soon. First up is the new line of t-wrenches available in 7mm for 1/10th offroad wheel nuts and the 17mm version for 1/8th offroad wheel nuts. Made from aluminium and available in black or blue the end is extruded to allow you to ‘quick spin’ the wheel nut and features a t-handle so you can tighten down or loosen the nut. Seen on the table of Ryan Maifield is a new carbon and aluminium high end setup board. Large enough to be used with a 1/8th truggy but better suited for 1/10th scale, the outer frame has been machined from blue anodised aluminium with the work surface made from carbon fibre.

Seen on many of the JConcepts team driver’s car is the new Stabilizer rear wing that incorporates a rear gurney flap, similar to that used on 1/8th wings, which can be bent forward to further increase downforce. Available for the B5M and the 22 3.0, as the name suggests the wing offers a lot of stability due to the large amount of downforce the wing generates. In terms of bodies, the Warrior and S2 bodies are now available in lightweight versions, perfect for dropping weight which is especially useful in stock classes.
