Tamiya 18085 Lupine Racer VS Chassis Retro Buggy Kit  [18085]

18085 Lupine Racer mounted on the VS chassis by Tamiya

The Tamiya 18085 Lupine Racer blends a retro buggy silhouette with the compact VS chassis platform. Supplied with a painted wolf driver seated in the open cockpit and a sturdy black plastic body, this 1/32 kit works well on the shelf and around club circuits where quick handling counts.

Kit Appearance and Decal Pack

The model carries roll-bar styling and a comprehensive sticker set that features a stylised Chinese "wolf" motif. The chassis comes in purple ABS, with black rollers, battery parts and other components matching the six-spoke wheels and slick tyres for a consistent look.

Handling, Cooling and Gear Ratio

The VS chassis is engineered for lightweight performance and a tight turning circle thanks to its short wheelbase. Built-in air ducts help with motor ventilation, and the hinged switch and battery doors improve maintenance. A 5:1 gear ratio balances acceleration and top speed for typical club track conditions.
