The Kyosho Turbo Scorpion is more than just a reproduction — it is the 5th model to return as part of the vintage series. The ever-popular Scorpion originally released in 1982 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 size for improved off-road performance.
12mm oil shocks based on the Optima deliver rock-solid running stability and excellent damping characteristics. A 20mm wider front tread and 10mm longer wheelbase than the original Scorpion realise improved control and handling performance. The standard Turbo Scorpion is a fully optioned chassis configuration ready to accept modern-day power sources and compete on modern race circuits.
