[Futuristic mood enhanced by the brain core]
This is a plastic model assembly kit of a high-performance racer that uses a shaft drive 4WD. The Synchro Master Z9 is the machine of Kazama Reon (Leon) that appears in the Mini 4WD manga "Mirai Racer V Twin" serialized in Shogakukan's school magazines "Shogaku Ni-nensei" and "Shogaku San-nensei". The body is full of a futuristic mood, with a sharp front and exposed pipes, and the characteristic part called the brain core is reproduced with clear parts. In addition, the synchro wing that regulates the air flow on the top of the body is prepared as a separate part, giving it a three-dimensional finish. Stickers are provided for blue and yellow graphics and logos that stand out against the red body. The sharp streamlined form is emphasized, enhancing the sense of speed.
 
[Lightweight and simple VS chassis]
The chassis is a small, lightweight, short-wheelbase VS. The air ducts on the underside of the chassis provide excellent cooling for the motor, and the switch cover and battery holder can be opened and closed with hinges, which is another feature of the VS. The chassis body and rear roller stays are made of black ABS resin. The A parts such as the front cover and battery holder are also unified in black. The front is equipped with a 14mm plastic roller (blue) with a rubber ring. In addition, the large white dish wheels are equipped with slick tires with a width of 10mm for the front wheels and 14mm for the rear wheels. With high grip, it reduces sideways slippage in corners. The gear ratio is 4:1.
