Examining the Thunder Shot Mk.II Clear Special

The Tamiya Thunder Shot Mk.II Clear Special offers a striking Mini 4WD platform that balances visual appeal with tuning potential. Its clear body and MS chassis provide a straightforward base for racers seeking controllable performance and easy customisation.

Body build and styling cues

The clear polycarbonate body is formed to a thin 0.4mm profile to keep mass down while retaining adequate strength for typical racing impacts. The transparency makes it ideal for bespoke paint schemes and the included clear stickers for a race-ready appearance.

MS chassis construction and benefits

The MS chassis uses a central double-shaft motor arrangement that helps distribute weight evenly, improving handling at higher speeds. Main chassis components include N-02 and T-01 plates plus a lightweight centre section, all in rugged black ABS for longevity.

Upgrade strategy and parts compatibility

Racers can fit a range of Grade-Up Parts to refine the Thunder Shot Mk.II, from performance motors to different tyres and adjustable gear sets. These parts let you optimise acceleration, top speed and cornering for specific circuit demands.
