Press Release From JConcepts:

What is the response when a popular new mini vehicle hits the market? It is simple; add the most popular and best performing body to date to an already successful platform. Dubbed the S2, the new shell rocks some familiar features but rolled together with a low-profile stance. With IFMAR Championship credibility backing this design, it is an easy choice. The S2 for the Losi Mini-B is a performer straight out of the package, with the C|T-Type rear wing to help deliver results on any racing circuit. 

Slammed overall height allows the S2 to whisk through the turns with a low center of mass while the progressive cab design provides plenty of front-end force for superior balance and steering. A channeled roof directs the flow through the center of the body while also increasing the rigidity of cockpit. The dual side-window design that has become famous on the JConcepts bodies remains to bring a traditional feel to the layout.

The upper side-pods feature distinct vents used to help relieve hot air build-up inside the body for those high-powered runs or hot days outside. Carved and detailed side-pods edge the body giving the highly aero unit a stylish look with a tight fit and finish. Cut-lines are included on the body to accommodate the Mini-B lay-down transmission layout to give all out versatility.

Roll with the IFMAR World Champion, the S2 by JConcepts.

Features:

  • JConcepts original Silencer 2 styling
  • Aggressive, progressive cab design
  • Channeled roof with center stabilizer
  • Useable side-pod vents
  • Includes a C|T-Type rear wing
  • Includes JConcepts decal sheet and window mask

Cleverly named, F2, the unique design quickly raised some eyebrows and proved effective on the ground and in the air. Designed with aspects learned from the original Finnisher bodies, the F2 provides an even more aggressive look with included details which remain crucial to performance. The F2 body is a drop fit for the popular Losi Mini-B buggy. 

With the evolution of racetracks, 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 help steering rotation in low traction corners.

The side-pods have been simplified and JC chamfered to remove unwanted changes in height to neutralize the at-speed handling. The front of the pods has a dual step, scoop treatment which give a first in class look to the F2 body. The rear of the cab has the Finnisher step feature which allows the placement of a secondary side window and several louver options off the rear. In addition to the newly designed body, JConcepts has included the latest C|T-Type rear wing which provide downforce in a variety of conditions on the racing circuit.

Features:

  • Original - JConcepts F2 design
  • Blended wing | body design
  • Includes a C|T-Type rear wing
  • Clear polycarbonate with protective film
  • Window masks and decal sheet
  • IFMAR World Championship winning design

A new wing has been developed and manufactured by JConcepts Inc. for the Losi Mini-B. The C|T-Type incorporates a short-chord design for quick rotation and a base which provides additional clearance. As the carpet and Astroturf conditions become more prevalent, racers have asked for a specific rear wing. The durable design has chopped rear corners for rigidity plus a traditional rear trim-line for a great balance of down-force and low-drag.

The side-dams of the wing feature hard radius cut-outs which allow even more tire rear expansion and flex space. JConcepts designer Paul Wynn added dual stability fangs which also help boost the front to rear structure. The rear of the wing still maintains a high-angle to vertical rear dam to give drivers a straight-forward layout suited to high-speed circuits.

The C|T-Type Wing is a direct bolt-on piece for the Mini-B and includes two pieces per package. Cut-lines are positioned throughout for trim and tuning options to provide racers feel control over one of the most important elements in off-road racing.

Features:

  • Innovative design, durable material
  • Clipped rear corners minimize breakage
  • Large openings for tire clearance and expansion
  • Pro-level height and rake angle
  • Mini-B off-road wizardry
