This version follows an off-road buggy theme with aerodynamic lines and a purposeful stance. The body comes in white PS ready for paint, while the light blue ABS parts add contrast. The kit also includes large-diameter fluorescent orange hard slick tires to complete the race-ready appearance.

Super-II Chassis Performance

The Super-II chassis is moulded in blue ABS for resilience and flexibility when fitting upgrades. It delivers stable handling at speed and accepts common performance parts. Included light blue 13mm rollers help maintain cornering stability and consistent track contact.
