About the Slash 2WD Short Course Truck Kit

Body & Chassis

The Slash kit features a tough fiber-composite monocoque chassis engineered for stability, strength, and long-term durability. Its 13.2-inch wheelbase and generous ground clearance help the truck stay planted over rough terrain while maintaining predictable handling. The included clear clipless short course body offers a clean, streamlined appearance with reinforced panels and heavy-duty latches that hold tight during intense action yet release quickly for easy access. Tube-style bumpers and body reinforcements add extra protection, making the platform ready for hard driving right from the first run.
