Tamiya 95463 Thunder Shot Mk.II Clear Special - Polycarbonate Body on MS Chassis  [95463]

In-depth look at the Thunder Shot Mk.II Clear Special

The Tamiya Thunder Shot Mk.II Clear Special combines track-focused design with visual flair in the Mini 4WD lineup. Its lightweight polycarbonate shell and race-inspired silhouette make it a popular choice for club racers and hobby builders who want a tunable base for speed and handling improvements.

Polycarbonate body and styling

The body is produced in clear polycarbonate, formed to a thin 0.4mm to reduce mass while keeping enough toughness for regular track use. The translucency lets you personalise paint and add the supplied clear stickers for a custom race look that still cuts weight.

MS chassis layout and advantages

This kit uses the MS chassis with a double-shaft motor layout placed centrally for balanced weight distribution. The chassis assembly includes N-02 and T-01 plates plus a lightweight centre unit, all molded from durable black ABS for strength and modular assembly during setup or maintenance.

Tuning options and upgrade direction

Owners can upgrade the Thunder Shot Mk.II with a range of Grade-Up Parts such as higher torque or high-speed motors, various tyre compounds, and alternate gear ratios. These upgrades help fine-tune acceleration, top speed and cornering to suit different track formats.

With its thin polycarbonate shell and well engineered MS chassis, the Tamiya Thunder Shot Mk.II Clear Special offers a solid platform for both casual collectors and competitive Mini 4WD racers looking to customize performance.
