The Hobby Hideaway Verdict: Precision Engineering Meets Iconic Styling The wait is over for one of the most versatile and aerodynamic body kits in the 1/28 scale world. The Concept C9 isn't just a shell; it’s a performance-driven masterpiece designed for racers who want both speed and durability. Engineered with a "Lower-than-Low" CG philosophy, this body allows you to hug the apexes with surgical precision. If you’re looking to dominate the 98mm class, the C9 is your ticket to the top of the podium.
Revolutionary Aerodynamics and Fit The Concept C9 is designed specifically for high-speed stability. It features a sleek, low-profile silhouette that cuts through the air, while the ABS construction provides a rigid, high-quality feel that holds up better than Lexan in door-to-door racing. The kit includes a specialized Reversible Side Body Clip system, a game-changer that allows you to lower the overall body height by an additional 1mm simply by reversing the installation. This micro-adjustment results in significantly flatter cornering and a lower center of gravity.
Key Features & Technical Specs:
Ultra-Low CG Design: Reversible mounting system drops the body closer to the chassis, maximizing weight distribution.
Vibrant Yellow Finish: Molded in high-gloss yellow material. Ready for custom paint or a professional out-of-the-box look.
Premium Detailing: Includes clear and red lenses for headlights and taillights.
Hybrid Construction: Features a Lexan roof and spoiler to keep weight at a minimum where it matters most.
Next-Gen Ready: Fully compatible with the Kyosho Mini-Z MR-04, MR-03, and MR-02 platforms.
Wheelbase: 98mm
Chassis Compatibility: Kyosho Mini-Z, PN 2.5W, GL Racing (GLA, GLR), and Atomic (AMZ, BZ).
Hobby Hideaway Pro Tip: To get the most out of the C9, we recommend utilizing the reversible clips to drop the body as low as your tires will allow. This body is a favorite for 98mm racing because of its balanced front-to-rear downforce. If you are upgrading to the MR-04, this body is the perfect choice to complement the improved sensor feel and front-end agility of the new chassis.
