Originally launched in 1986 as the Super Shot, this classic buggy returns as the Tamiya Super Hotshot (2012). The HC-58517 1/10 scale R/C assembly kit preserves the spirit and layout of the original, combining a shaft-driven 4WD drive-train with durable suspension hardware and period styling.
Four oil-filled dampers and double wishbone suspension deliver controlled handling over rough surfaces, while a chassis underguard helps protect vital components. Spiked tyres on gold-plated wheels and a polycarbonate body with rear wing complete the iconic look. For a refined build and smooth running, the kit includes a full ball bearing specification, plus a Tamiya GT-Tuned Motor (25T) and TEU-104BK electronic speed controller.

Questions & Answers
That would depend what motor/ESC you installed (these are supplied without electrics).
With a basic brushed setup maybe around 25mph. A decent brushless setup could be in excess of 50mph...
