JConcepts Illuzion Kyosho MP9 And Team Associated RC8.2 Finnisher Bodies

05 March, 2012

We 1st told you about this new bodies last week, and now JConcepts has released the official details about these new bodies.  Check out the press release below for more info:

JConcepts hit the ground in Vaasa, Finland with an all new body design specifically for the IFMAR World Championships. Cleverly named, Finnisher, the unique design quickly rose to the top of the field during competition and proved effective on the ground and in the air. Designed with aspects learned from the Punisher line of bodies, the Finnisher provides an even more aggressive look with included details which remain crucial to performance. JConcepts is pleased to introduce the Finnisher body design specifically for 1/8th buggy racing. The MP9 Finnisher body is a drop fit for the popular vehicle and bears a stunning look with its cab treatment, styling and aggressive personality.

With the evolution of race tracks, complicated circuits combining more aggressive jumps and extremely high-speed corners; JConcepts incorporated many features which provide several benefits in the most critical situations. Increased windshield angle provides a steady force upfront during mid-flight wind gusts on large jumps. Forward cab placement changes performance / visible bias which helps steering rotation in low traction corners. The side-pods have a strong and chiseled look, including a recessed area in the rear which allows another option for air-escape.

The chassis side-guard to body fit has been tightened up which helps eliminate large empty voids that contribute to mid-flight directional changes. The area behind the cab has been greatly lowered exposing more of the engine heat-sink allowing more heat-escape. The V-stepped feature which is a highlighted styling cue of the Finnisher buggy bodies has been incorporated toward the rear and allows an additional area that can be trimmed to allow air-flow through the body.

Features:

  • Original – JConcepts Finnisher design
  • Blended wing / body design
  • Clear polycarbonate with protective film
  • Window masks and Finnisher decal sheet
