New in the Pits – JConcepts

JConcepts are debuting a number of new items here at the 2016 Dirt Nitro Challenge, the first of the recently released Triple Dees and the Lil Chasers. Available in a variety of compounds they work very well on slightly damp track conditions and are working very well here this weekend with Ryan Maifield taking the top spot in both buggy classes this weekend. The next new item is the Hybrid polycarbonate rear wing which is a pre trimmed wing that comes supplied with a two depths of plastic rear gurneys and two versions of each depth that can be mounted with or without the centre centre divider and all are mounted to the wing with a rear plastic brace to added strength and durability. Finally there is a set of Titanium turnbuckles for the TLR 8ight 4.0 for light weight and high strength.
