Overview
This Factory Team steel lower pod plate is a precision upgrade for the Team Associated RC28R micro race platform. It replaces the lower pod plate with a heavier steel part that adds useful weight exactly where rear pod stability matters most.
For racers tuning a 1:28 RC car for smoother rotation and better corner-exit consistency, this is a focused chassis tuning part rather than a cosmetic add-on. It supports a more planted rear end without changing the core RC28R layout.
