NASCAR, the most popular racing series in the US, has teamed up with Kyosho
to produce the only hobby-grade, officially licensed NASCAR RC cars available in
the world.
The series begins with the 2005 Ford Taurus of Carl Edwards and the 2006
Chevrolet Monte Carlo of Kevin Harvick. The 2005 Taurus represents the car used
by Edwards for his first full season of NASCAR NEXTEL Cup racing for Roush
Racing, in which he scored four wins and two poles. Harvick's 2006 Chevrolet
Monte Carlo is a replica of the Childress Racing car used to win at Phoenix,
Watkins Glen and Richmond, and the same car that won a total of five races and
one pole award during the 2006 season.
The Mini-Z i-Series chassis features the same quality chassis construction as
the rest of the Mini-Z line-up, which is the standard when it comes to mini RC
vehicles. It has independent front suspension with solid axle rear suspension,
just like the full-size racecars. Additionally, the electronics feature full
digital proportional control, instead of the analog resistor-type controllers so
common in cheaper mini-size cars. This means you have fully proportional control
of forward, reverse, and steering with digital precision.
