A GR8 M-Chassis Addition
This assembly kit creates the M-08 Concept high performance R/C chassis, which employs a midship motor, rear-wheel drive layout for superior rear traction, plus a main frame split into front and rear sections that allow 3 different wheelbases. Smooth 4-wheel double wishbone suspension utilizes CVA oil dampers and long suspension arms for a ground hugging drive, and the front caster with a pairing of 0-degree suspension mount and 2-degree hub carrier. An oil-filled gear differential provides smooth drive, while motor and gearbox are positioned to ensure powerful drive under acceleration.

What bodyshells fit this chassis? I can’t find any on your website. Thanks
Asked by Chris on 6th March 2020

These can be setup for either 210, 225 or 239mm wheelbase. Most "M chassis" bodies will usually fit, for example: wheelspinmodels.co.uk/c/103/?cs=%7B82%3A%5B342%5D%7D
