The Hobby Hideaway Verdict: Futuristic Formula Racing Reinvented! At Hobby Hideaway, we appreciate a kit that breaks the mold of traditional racing aesthetics. The Eleglitter is a stunning vision of a futuristic formula car, conceived by the legendary Kota Nezu of znug design. It isn't just a standard machine; it is a "wide and low" performance special, blending a sleek, open-wheel silhouette with a modern profile that looks ready for a high-stakes Grand Prix. It brings a sophisticated, high-concept energy to the track that is perfect for Ottawa racers who value both form and function.
Agile Engineering on the VZ Chassis Matching its avant-garde styling, this kit is mounted on the remarkably quick and adaptable VZ Chassis. The VZ is highly regarded in the local racing community because of its compact, lightweight footprint and reinforced durability in key areas like the bumper and rear stay. It provides an incredibly nimble, flexible ride that can survive the rigors of high-speed racing accidents while remaining a versatile platform for racers who want to experiment with numerous technical updates.
