Highly Appealing This R/C model assembly kit is a re-released and updated version of Thunder Shot, the original of which was first released in 1987. It features a stylish body molded in polycarbonate, which is pre-cut and pre-painted in white and blue, with a transparent canopy. An optional rear wing is also included to let you fine-tune the Thunder Shot (2022), also pre-painted and pre-cut. |

Smooth Shaft-Driven 4WD With a midship motor layout and shaft-driven 4WD setup, the chassis is based around a lightweight and rigid ABS plastic frame that stows R/C equipment internally and features gearbox units with internal differential front and rear that have the suspension attached to them. That four-wheel double wishbone suspension features upper "I" and lower "H" arms and packs a single CVA oil damper at the front, with a pair at the rear, plus a front stabilizer: the result is a smooth, flowing drive. Other features of note include an aluminum motor mount, plus grippy spike tires on all four corners. |
 The compact, futuristic body is molded in lightweight and durable polycarbonate. |
 |
 Sturdy and easy to work on, the chassis has an ergonomic design based around an ABS bathtub. |
|
 The front double-wishbone suspension employs upper "I" and lower "H" arms. |
 A front monoshock setup sees the CVA oil damper laid on its side. The stabilizer helps supress roll. |
|
 An aluminum motor mount not only keeps the motor securely attached, it also acts as a heat sink. |
|
 The rear of the chassis also uses double-wishbone suspension, with a pair of CVA oil dampers. |
 One-piece dish wheels will attract less mud, and are paired with semi-pneumatic spike tires. |
|
 A polycarbonate cover helps minimize debris getting into the chassis, and even features a driver figure! |
|
 A separate rear wing is also included for optional attachment to the Thunder Shot (2022). |
