Thunder Tiger - 1/8 Go Kart KT8 EP 2.4GHz

 

A Brand New Driving Experience

1/8 Go Kart KT8 EP 2.4GHz

Product No. 6570-F271
Go Kart KT8, Gray

This 1/8 scale R/C kart is packed with awesome features: a gear differential for stability, a sealed gearbox, an easy-change battery tray, and standard micro sized electronics. On-track handling is managed without any springs and shocks but rather by a tuned flex chassis and suspension mounts - just like the full-size racing karts.

The realistic nylon-injected bodywork features a nose fairing, separate side-pods, a steering wheel, and a driver's seat to go along with the light-weight driver figure. Slick rubber tires coupled with high density foam inserts mounted on scale appearance wheels offer excellent gripping power.
