Kyosho V-One RRR "Shimo Edition" 1/10 Nitro Touring Car Kit

This is the Kyosho V-ONE RRR "Shimo Edition" 1/10 Nitro Touring Car Kit. Beginning with its first World Championship victory in 2004, the V-One RRR has been a top performer in the 1/10 scale Nitro Sedan Class where its overwhelming speed and on track prowess has been demonstrated on many occasions. Now Takaaki Shimo's superbly tuned version is available to the masses! This kit includes a variety of specialized performance parts that Kyosho's top development driver has added to an already super fast V-One RRR to keep it one lap ahead of the competition. Many of these parts are not available separately, have been anodized in Mr. Shimo's signature silver hue, and can only be found within this special 'Shimo Edition' kit! Based off of the V-One RRR Evo 2 chassis, and produced with only the best materials Kyosho has to offer, this kit brings a Champion platform to the table that with the experience of Takaaki Shimo becomes a chassis that has all the fundamentals you need to win...the only thing that is missing, is YOU!

Features:

• Small Clutch Unit: Small diameter clutch unit and hard coated pinion gears are combined together to produce a sharp acceleration every time.
• Velvet Coated V-One Shocks: Kyosho is well known for silky smooth shocks and the new V-One shocks included with the new Shimo Edition are no exception. The velvet coated shock bodies feature a threaded spring pre-load collar for quick and easy adjustments.
• Shimo Belt Tensioner: Features Shimo's special high-durability flanged type bearing belt tensioner.
• Vented Brake Disk: Lighter, stronger and high durability are some of the words to describe the new vented disk that is included with the Shimo V-ONE RRR. The new high-durability vented brake disk produces effective braking power over an extended period of time without brake fade.
• Multi Offset Clamp: The Shimo Edition uses multi offset clamp-type aluminum hexed wheel hubs, that give you a choice of 4 different offset settings.
• New 3mm Carbon Shock Tower: A re-designed 3mm rear carbon shock tower has been developed to provide you with greater setting options. The new shock tower provides you with a choice of 9 shock mounting position.
• Hard Anodized: Both 17T and 22T clutch pinions are hard anodized for a longer life and better wear.
• Super Light Weight: Upper plate has been cut and shaped to remove unnecessary weight. Combines with dynamic main chassis for superior control on high-speed courses.
• Universal Swing Shafts: Front and rear universals swing shafts are included as standard equipment. This turns the drive train of the V-ONE RRR into a super efficient machine with no power loss.
• Hard Pillow Balls: Hard pillow balls provide smooth action and longer life compared to standard pillow balls.

• SP Side Pulley Set: The Shimo Edition comes with the SP Pulley Set as standard equipment.
• Front Diff Assembly: 4 bevel gear front diff assembly is used in the V-ONE RRR Shimo Edition because of it's great power handling abilities and increased adjustablility.
