Kyosho Fazer Mk2 Alpine GT4 ReadySet

Kyosho have introduced their new Fazer Mk2 Alpine GT4 ReadySet 1/10th 4WD on-road ready-to-run set. Kyosho has taken its standard touring car chassis and given it a full model makeover that has evolved performance to a new level. A simplified design with fewer parts has improved maintenance efficiency and reduced weight while core strength and rigidity has been increased through new materials, ribbing and stiffeners on front and rear. In addition, the symmetrical chassis design makes for excellent front-rear balance and a responsive car control. Featuring a slipper clutch, front and rear gear differentials, oil shocks and full ball bearings, the high durability and impact resistance allows drivers to unleash the full potential of the chassis. Brake disc wheel hubs with two different offsets of 0mm and +5mm provide compatibility with 190mm and 200mm width body styles and allows the wheelbase to be adjusted to 274mm by replacing only a handful of optional parts for compatibility with other 1/10 scale body styles, in addition the body included. The ReadySet package comes fully assembled and includes everything except charger and battery for the chassis, and batteries for the transmitter. The set is completed by an Ultra Scale Body Alpine GT4 lid.
