From Mugen:
Mugen Seiki is excited to announce the New MBX8TR Nitro Truck. The new Mugen Seiki MBX8TR has been tested and develop by the best drivers in the world and will be available to you soon! The team at Mugen Seiki spent a lot of time testing and developing the MBX8TR geometry in race conditions throughout 2022 which led to many major victories. The MBX8TR has several new parts to increase stability, rear traction, improved jumping / landing, and to have more tuning options.

Suspension:

  • New “C” and “D” suspension mounts now use square pills for increased tuning of toe-in and anti-squat. and geometry. The front and rear arms use an impact resistant material for increased durability. Stiffer LW front and rear arms will be available as option parts for the MBX8TR. The rear uprights are also new for the MBX8TR. The molded uprights have CFRP plates to adjust the rear roll center.
  • New front shock tower and upper front arm mount that use new pivot inserts for increased tuneability.

Clutch:

New 4 shoe clutch. The MBX8TR comes with a complete new 4 shoe clutch from Mugen Seiki. The new 4 shoe clutch was designed to be easy to work on and more tunable than other 4 shoe clutches on the market. This premium clutch features a 34mm aluminum 4 shoe flywheel with removable steel pins. The new clutch has a unique way of adjusting spring tension to tune the engagement to suit your engine, track conditions and personal preferences to optimize fuel consumption and performance. Multiple clutch spring options are available as options. The new vented 13T clutch bell, two carbon shoes, and two aluminum shoes are included in the MBX8TR kit.

Differential and drivetrain:

High Traction Differentials are included in the MBX8TR. The Mugen Seiki HTD provides increased acceleration, longer runtime, and more consistent handling. The HTD’s also increase stability, traction and improve handling in bumpy conditions. The MBX8TR comes with new sun gears to improve internal mesh and diff action. The MBX8TR comes with 10T bevel gear and 46T conical gears in the kit.

Body and wing:

  • New Flash Point body lowers the center of gravity, increases steering, improves jumping and landing.
  • Lightweight high down-force wing allows more air to flow through the wing to improve jumping in windy conditions. The new wing is durable, lightweight and provides amazing stability and rear traction.
