Stinger Jr.

Update v1.1: Optional. Fixed minor issue on underside of the model, no other changes.

Toy-Volt continued to expand their super-deformed range of RC cars years since the start of the series. Being affordable, customizable, and characterful, these little cars are loved by both beginners and die-hard Toy-Volt fans alike.  What once was a japanese-exclusive product soon became a large scale operation with contributions from other Toy-Volt branches such as those in Europe and the Americas.

"Stinger Jr." was a desinged headed by Toy-Volt USA. It is a nod to the success of the original 1/10 GP touring car.

Tips:

• Stinger Jr. drives similarly to Stinger; the car has mdiocre acceleration but excelent grip.
• Tap steering can provide better turn radius and faster cornering speed that locking the front wheels in a turn.
• The car often needs to slow down ahead of tight corners much like the larger counterpart since it cannot powerslide.
• Like with  10-Ko and Purp XS, the attributes derived from the larger car makes Stinger Jr. one of the highest-paced chibis when played effectively.
• Likewise, the CPU for this car can be pretty competitive on par with 10-Ko.

...

Misc:

• The car apppears to be a lighter shade than Phimeek's Stinger due to my decision to use a lighter vertex shading (consistent with most of my other cars) as well as some differences in lighting on the texture itself.
• There is only one skin for this car since I was not feeling motivated to do more while working on several other cars.
