The Tamiya 95209 Flame Astute Red Metallic Special brings a compact aerodynamic profile together with the AR chassis platform. It is aimed at hobbyists who enjoy setup work and visual tweaks as much as on-track performance.
This special model features a matte red metallic finish over the body and wheel faces for a cohesive appearance. Complementary red, white and blue decal strips and metal-look insignia add a racing touch without overdoing it.
The AR chassis uses durable black ABS to keep weight down while improving airflow. The integrated under panel and diffuser, also in black, support stability and help the car slice through the air cleanly.
There are straightforward upgrade paths such as fitting higher output 130 motors, choosing tyre compounds for grip, and swapping gears to alter acceleration versus top speed. The stock 3.5:1 gears provide a balanced baseline.
Assembly follows a simple construction method with parts that fit together with limited use of tools. Pre-coloured parts mean you can build quickly, or spend time painting and adding personal touches.
The Tamiya 95209 Flame Astute Red Metallic Special is a solid choice for modders who want a sleek shell and AR chassis that respond well to performance parts.
