This is an optional Exotek Flite Top Shaft for use with the B6.1, B6.1D, T6.1 and SC6.1. For the B6.1 series of laydown and layback transmission buggies - Not for the standup transmission.
Ultra light top shaft that has been drilled and the teeth narrowed for increased acceleration and a cooler running motor. Note, the Exotek top shaft teeth are 6.5mm wide which is wider than the lightweight Associated top shaft teeth, which helps prolong the life of the plastic idler gear.
