Technical Performance
The FTX Supaforza Chassis Outer Side Guards are engineered from quality materials selected specifically for impact resistance and durability during high-stress RC off-road driving. As an OEM part, these guards are manufactured to match the exact specifications and tolerances of the original components that come with the Supaforza, ensuring flawless fitment without gaps, misalignment or clearance issues that could compromise protection. The guards are positioned on the outer edges of the chassis to intercept side impacts before they can reach the main frame structure, absorbing collision energy that would otherwise cause costly damage to suspension mounts, electronics bays and structural integrity. Built with the same engineering standards as all FTX components, these guards maintain consistent protection across multiple driving sessions and repeated impacts without degradation. Whether you're running your RC car UK through rocky terrain, crashed into obstacles during speed runs, or simply want to protect your chassis during regular bashing sessions, these guards deliver reliable protection that keeps your Supaforza roadworthy and ready for action.
