The Italian Bittydesign, in collaboration with the World Champion Robert Batlle have released the new Vision body shell for the Mugen MBX8 1/8th Scale nitro buggy. The advanced cab has been designed to increase cornering speed but at the same time, thanks to the soft rear slide behind the roof, the body is perfectly balanced.
Wallie Builds just released carbon fiber side guards for the racing buggies: Team Associated RC8B3.1/e, RC8T3.1/e and Mugen Seiki MBX8, MBX8 Eco and the MB8XT.
