Description

The 18th model in the Kyosho Vintage Series faithfully recreates the legendary Turbo Optima Mid Special. The original limited edition released in 1988 sold out almost immediately.
Eight new parts were specifically designed for the Turbo Optima Mid Special.
While maintaining the original design, updates have been made to support modern R/C electronics and power sources.
High-efficiency belt-drive 4WD system delivers stability and smooth control on both R/C circuits and dirt tracks.
48-pitch pinion and spur gears are used, with the option to install 78T/80T spur gears.
Equipped with reinforced slipper clutch designed for powerful motors and batteries. Can be adjusted with the dual slipper seat from the Ultima RB.
Included battery holder is compatible with various battery shapes. By trimming part of the main chassis, side-by-side Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) or Nickel-Cadmium (NiCd) batteries can be mounted.
The reinforced nylon rear wing provides a balance of strength and flexibility, and is shared with the previously released Optima Mid. It can also be swapped with a Scorpion-style wing for further tuning.
The rear hub carrier allows adjustment of toe angles to 0°, 1°, or 2° by changing the bushings.
Aluminum hex wheel hubs are securely fixed with screw pins.
Drivetrain features full ball bearings, ensuring high rotational efficiency.
Blister-style packaging, similar to the original release, evokes nostalgia from that era.
With a wide range of optional parts, this model offers extensive tuning options. This model is not just a simple remake – it's ready to be enjoyed as a modern-day racer!
