The Gas Powered Remote Control Truck

About gas-powered remote control vehicles, four-time NASCAR champ Jeff Gordon says, "These things will fly. You can't imagine how fast they are." This gas-powered, 1:8 scale model differs from a full-sized monster truck only in size, powered by a pull-start 3.5 cc, 4-port engine with a rear exhaust, and two servos (one for throttle and the other to power the bell-crank steering) which translate your remote's movements into controlled, high-revving power. It has a sturdy aluminum countersunk chassis and coil-over shocks for stability that eclipses traditional lightweight battery-powered models. The two-channel pistol-grip remote features steering and throttle trims for tight control, while true four-wheel drive and the fully adjustable suspension keep the vehicle firmly planted on the ground through the most dramatic twists and turns. Disk brakes provide confident stops and oversized 6 1/2" treaded rubber tires grip the terrain. The body is constructed of professionally painted Lexan (the same materials used in bulletproof glass). Minor assembly. Not a toy; ages 18 and over. Remote requires 2 AA batteries. Starter requires one D battery. 4 1/2" H x 11 3/4" W x 16 1/2" L. (11 1/4 lbs.)
