The Hellcat Short Course body comes by way of MethodRC.com. Stellar design initiatives place the Hellcat Short Course body in the center of the Radio Controlled world.

The Method RC designers have once again addressed the Short Course world by innovation. The inclusion of air extractors placed within the “low-pressure” zones of the poly-carbonate body reduces what is known as *The Parachute Effect (See Below). Just take a peek at  Hellcats hood, no swiss cheese there. Also, Method RC has lightened the poly-carbonate short course body shell by reducing the over all thickness. Also included is a rear wing for extra tire bite and track stability. On a personal JRC note, “WOW” confidence via poly-carbonate! Take a look at the official features of the newest addition and what is included for just $35.

Features:

  • Smart placement of air extractors maximizes aerodynamic benefit without compromising the look of the vehicle
  • ROAR compliant design
  • Made from 0.040″ thick water-clear, high-impact, mar resistant polycarbonate (Lexan body)
  • Integrated overspray film and included window masks will give your paint job a professional appearance
  • Clear overspray film makes it easier to see your paint colors as you apply them
  • All fasteners for mounting number plates and rear spoiler are included
  • Proudly made in the USA

What’s Included:

  • Clear Hellcat RC short course body (1 pc)
  • Rear spolier (1 pc) and number plates (2 pcs) (must be trimmed)
  • Fasteners kit (1 pc)
  • Mirage decal sheet (1 pc)
  • Method team decal sheet (1 pc)
  • Window mask (1 pc)

*The Parachute Effect: This is caused when air flows under the front of the vehicles fenders “lifting” the front end in the air. This can also deteriorate consistency and lead to erratic behavior when in the air.
