Painting Required
This body shell comes completely UNPAINTED and may require body post holes to be drilled. Only use a polycarbonate style paint such as The Tamiya PS series to finish these bodies, as standard paints will not adhere and/or cause damage to the body shell's surface. If you require paint, we recommend the polycarbonate safe paints.
The Scorcher, a popular and speedy 4WD racing buggy from the late-1980s Tamiya line-up, is back with a new name and updated body. Made from durable polycarbonate and featuring a stylish large rear wing, the body design drew heavily upon the original Scorcher for inspiration, and can be decorated with the large stickers included. It runs on the easy-assembly shaft-driven 4WD TT-02B, marrying the chassis' controllability with square spike tyres for superior grip on rough surfaces.
The shaft-driven 4WD TT-02B buggy chassis uses a skid-shaped frame with 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension using long arms and CVA shocks. Left and right suspension arms and uprights are identical to facilitate hassle-free assembly. Front and rear gearboxes include 4-bevel differentials for smooth operation and are sealed to keep out dust. Four different gear ratios can be applied using three separately-sold types of pinion gears, allowing you to match the car's characteristics to the conditions. A receiver case and motor cover protect the electronics from dirt and debris.
