Track behaviour
As it is exclusively the body, the track behaviour will depend on the chassis and mechanics on which it is mounted. Sideways bodies are designed to fit precisely onto their own chassis, ensuring a correct and snug fit that does not affect performance during driving.
Painting and decorating tips
To achieve the best results on this white body, we recommend working with specific plastic paints such as those from Vallejo, Tamiya, or Kaleido. A prior primer will help improve adhesion, especially if decals or cut masks are to be applied. The factory white finish facilitates the faithful reproduction of light and vibrant colours without the need for additional base layers.
Points to consider
This reference includes only the body. The chassis, electronics, tyres, and other mechanical components are not included and must be purchased separately. Check compatibility with your Sideways chassis before placing your order.
