Construction and styling notes

The MS chassis is moulded in red ABS and paired with white A parts to give a distinct look and solid base for upgrades. Metallic decal sheets are included so you can personalise the model. Its dimensions of 155mm length, 104mm width and 42mm height fit standard circuit rules and layouts.

Included performance hardware

This kit supplies useful upgrade parts including a 1.5mm FRP front stay and rear brake stay to improve stability during high speed sections. Low resistance rollers and mass dampers are fitted to control vibration and cornering. The High-Speed EX Gear Set with a 3.7:1 ratio is specified for the MS chassis so you can balance acceleration and top speed.
