The last revival! Get ready for the revival of the famous Kyosho Scorpion!
In the spirit of the original but with updates all the time!
The legendary Kyosho Scorpion is credited with taking the racing buggy category into the realm of pure motorsports. Even after 30 years since it was first released in 1982, the indelible mark of Scorpion still exists with its many fans around the world. Kyosho is proud to refurbish this machine to all of its former glory! While maintaining the wild and free spirit of the original baja buggy styling and chassis design, the 2014 version features the latest in performance technology and sacrifices nothing in speed and endurance on modern buggy racing tracks. Externally it may resemble the original Scorpion with its semi-trailing suspension arms, but the advanced forged 6061T6 aluminum material offers futuristic levels of strength, stiffness and durability. Following the original design, the 2014 Scorpion features a new two-piece, die-cast aluminum gearcase with gear differentials. Plus, the included slipper clutch protects the transmission and provides efficient traction that takes Scorpion's feel of control and durability to a new higher level. Precision 48-pitch gears reduce pull pulsation for direct drive control characteristics, while the countersunk chassis bottom flat surface has no protruding screw heads for minimal contact and scraping resistance, resulting in a increased durability. Stainless axles are combined with aluminum cylinders in the oil dampers for a smooth ride from top to bottom and racing performance worthy of a true racing buggy. Like the original Scorpion, the 2014 version is packaged as an unassembled kit, but nearly all of the threaded bolts and nuts have been replaced with the improved security and lightweight hex bolts. From expert racers who knew the magic of the original Scorpion to today's racers, find out for yourself why the 2014 Scorpion commands so much respect!
