  • Description

    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 1982 was relaunched 2 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.

    • Turbo Scorpion updated to meet the demands of the modern off-road racing scene.
    • Kit includes pre-assembled gearbox and oil shocks.
    • Features same racy-style mini bumper as the original.
    • Rear section reinforced with Rear Sus Post L, strengthened by added flange.
    • Features accurate recreation of the original loop-mount light buckets. Optional LED lights can be simply bolted on.
    • Screwed surfaces are countersunk for flat finish.
    • Decals included in kit are diecut. Stretch for easy application and beautiful body finish.
