Sporty Scirocco
The Scirocco name is a famous one, going back to the first generation 3-door hatchback released by Volkswagen in 1974. Its third generation hit the street in 2008, featuring a low-profile design with long roof that really caught the eye, and this R/C model assembly kit depicts a race-going version of that car. A durable and lightweight polycarbonate body captures the form in style, complete with renderings of lip spoiler, engine hood air outlets and more, while separately molded plastic parts for the rear wing and side mirrors add a further level of detail and realism. The body comes pre-painted in black, with tinted windows. Wheel arches are pre-cut, and body mount holes have been pre-made.

Evolved Chassis
The bathtub frame of the evolved shaft-driven 4WD TT-01 Type-E has its motor and battery close to the ground for lower center of gravity and optimum balance. Mounted on the bathtub frame is a fiberglass reinforced nylon upper deck and gear covers improving rigidity, as well as a three-piece tie rod providing smooth steering action. The low center of gravity, highly balanced design, 4-wheel double wishbone suspension system, and front and rear differential gears all come together to produce an excellent drive. Mesh designs wheels are paired with racing slick tires for the finishing touch, while a host of Hop-Up Option parts are available to soup up the TT-01 Type-E!
