MST TCR-FF 1/10th 2WD touring cars

MST’s TCR-FF series of 1/10th scale 2WD touring cars allow for an easy way to enter the world of electric touring car racing. The basic chassis is highly convertible, as it enables the owner to build either a front motor FWD car, a mid-rear motor or a full rear motor variant, allowing to adapt the chassis to different grip conditions or driving styles. A basic double wishbone suspension ensures good traction and side bite while mock-up brake discs and callipers add a touch of realism for those who wish to build scale touring cars. The car is available as chassis-only kit, as kit including a Honda Civic EG6, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X or Nissan 370Z body and also as ready-to-run offering including a Civic EG6 body shell.
