The Tamiya 18102 Lupine Racer 2 pairs an open-top Thunder Shot silhouette with the adaptable AR chassis. It is aimed at enthusiasts who like to tweak gear, tyres and weight to match racetrack demands.
The dark blue open-top body cuts drag while the air intakes between body and chassis direct cooling airflow to the Type 130 motor and batteries. Efficient cooling helps maintain consistent performance during multiple heats.
The AR chassis is prized for its robust layout and straightforward servicing. Its aerodynamic form encourages airflow through the car, and features such as low-friction plastic bearings, a removable under-panel and diffuser plus a rear skid bar work together to reduce resistance on slopes and keep handling predictable.
Customisation options are wide on this platform. The AR chassis accepts upgraded motors, tyres and gears, plus additional weights if needed. The kit includes a Type 130 motor, metallic stickers and a factory 5:1 gear ratio to form a reliable starting point.
The Tamiya 18102 Lupine Racer 2 offers a tunable platform on the AR chassis that suits racers who want control over handling and speed through sensible upgrades and setup changes.
