Tamiya 18072 - Fire Dragon Premium with VS Base

The Tamiya 18072 Fire Dragon Premium renews the classic 1988 Fire Dragon styling while fitting a robust VS chassis underneath. It is ideal for builders who want a faithful retro look paired with a chassis suited to club track layouts. The Fire Dragon Jr. body uses metallic red ABS for a vibrant presentation, and the VS chassis is moulded in metallic gray for a neat mechanical look.

Chassis and Power

This set includes a Type 130 motor and a 4.2:1 gear ratio, a configuration that offers dependable speed and control. The oversized fluorescent pink wheels with black spike tyres deliver secure traction on smooth and rough track surfaces. Low-friction black rollers are fitted to assist cornering and reduce drag during laps.

Livery and Setup

A fresh metallic-look sticker sheet is supplied so you can style the Fire Dragon Premium with period graphics. The snap-together construction makes it approachable for new builders while still offering scope for tuning by experienced racers. Two AA batteries are needed to run the model and are not included.

The kit includes a Type 130 motor and stock gearing; with batteries fitted it will run, though basic setup like roller placement is recommended for best lap times.
The spike tyres on the large-diameter wheels give good bite on many surfaces, but you may swap tyres for specialised track conditions.
Yes, the VS chassis supports common hop-ups such as upgraded rollers, stabilisers and alternative motors to refine handling and speed.
