Kyosho: 1/10 EP 2WD Racing Buggy Car Turbo Scorpion
More performance and style with improvements to each key component, this machine is more than just a reproduction!
As the 5th model to make its return as part of the vintage series, the
ever-popular Scorpion released in 1982Â was relaunched 2Â years ago and has
undergone a detailed overhaul to match modern performance with retro styling.
The new Turbo Scorpion remains true to the essence of the unique Scorpion design
throughout but features Scorpion-style wheels in the larger 2.2-inch modern
standard wheels for improved off-road performance. In addition, 12mm oil shocks
based on the Optima deliver rock-solid running stability and excellent damping
characteristics that work in combination with high-grip front and rear tires
with a 20mm wider front tread and 10mm longer wheelbase than the original
Scorpion to realize improved control and handling performance. With a thorough
modernization, the new Turbo Scorpion is ready and willing to accept modern-day
power sources and compete on modern race circuits. The standard Turbo Scorpion
is a fully optioned chassis configuration and is ready to take the punishment
that goes with hard driving.
