This Tamiya 58352 Jaguar XJR-12 is a fine choice for those who collect historic race models or want a tunable, high-speed platform to run after installing their chosen electronics.

Yes, once fitted with suitable electronics and tyres, the chassis is well suited to club circuits that favour high-speed stability on smooth surfaces.
Common replacement parts and upgrade items for the C-car platform are available from hobby suppliers, making maintenance straightforward.
The polycarbonate body features accurate contours and moulded details like wheel spats and headlight shapes, requiring careful trimming and painting to reveal the best finish.
The car is optimised for smooth tarmac or low-pile carpet; rough surfaces will reduce top speed and may demand different tyres and suspension settings.
