Unleashing the Kyosho FAZER: A Gateway to GT Racing
The Kyosho FAZER series stands as an exemplary introduction to the world of nitro-powered touring cars. Designed with both beginners and seasoned racers in mind, the Kyosho O-31396 1/10 PureTen GP FAZER McLaren F1 GTR Gulf Racing Le Mans model encapsulates the essence of GT racing. This ready-to-run (RTR) marvel allows RC enthusiasts to experience the thrill of Le Mans right from their backyard.
From Real Track Legends to Your Hands
The McLaren F1 GTR, famously known for its performance at the 1995 Le Mans, is a legendary car that has been meticulously replicated by Kyosho. The Gulf Racing livery, synonymous with endurance racing heritage, adds authenticity to this model. With a focus on detail, the FAZER series ensures that every curve and line mirrors the real-world counterpart, making it a must-have for collectors and racing fans alike.
Performance Meets Precision Engineering
Underneath the stunning exterior lies a sophisticated shaft-driven 4WD chassis engineered for optimal balance and control. The low center of gravity, achieved through a compact heat sink and pre-mounted GZ-15 engine, enhances stability during high-speed maneuvers. The inclusion of oil shocks on the double-wishbone suspension system provides exceptional road-holding capabilities, crucial for tackling tight corners with ease.
Built for Easy Handling and Maintenance
The Kyosho FAZER's design emphasizes user-friendly features without compromising performance. A sealed radio box protects the receiver and battery, while the lightweight urethane bumper absorbs impacts, ensuring durability during aggressive driving. The innovative 3D upper plate adds rigidity to the chassis, contributing to its resilience and precision handling.
