Yet Another 1/8 Scale buggy to hit the market!

[HumboldtBlazer]

The ever popular buggy market continues to grow daily!

Here is the new Speed Bazoka

SOURCE: RADIOCONTROL.GR

It looks like they made the diffs sit lower and had to make deppression in the chassis to accomidate it. and look at that radio box, one word clean........

It may be the green, but it shure reminds me of a Kanai.

 

[Ryhton]

Thats a nice clean setup.

Yeah..... at least they coulda used diff colors then the kanai so it doesn't look like a total copy =\

 

[militarymaxx]

Great name !! Who wouldn't want a BAZOOKA ?

 

[El Pirata]

The lettering and coloring remind me of a Kyosho.

kind of looks like the kyosho as el piralta said with the writting and all. looks like a nice buggy though. if they price it less than 450.00 it should get some looks. if they can get it into the 300 range you could have a new king of buggies. hehe as if they will price it that low. plus the way it looks it seems like all the kanai parts will fit it. shock towers look exactly the same as does the steering brace.

Sorry to disappoint you but the Bazooka is not made by Kyosho, it is a very cheap Chinese copy of the Inferno.

The Bazooka (unless Speed really did make a new car) has been out for a few years, it is not an exact copy of the older Kyoshos but it is close. If you see buttloads of cheap buggies on Ebay for $250-300 or so, the Bazooka is one of them. There are a lot of "importers" of that car into the USA already, you just have to look for them as they don't use mainstream advertising like the bigger companies. I counted 5 booths at the I-Hobby Expo with that car. I've also been to their assembly plant in Dongguan, China (no relation to Power Racing at all)...they're a well-meaning group of people but they give a new meaning to the term bad engrish.

That was the last post man... 2004.

What I dont get, is newbs to the hobby join the forum AFTER they buy the cars... All you had to do was ask and we'd give you the right answer.

Anyway, good luck on the buggy. I hope it doesn't fall apart.

The words "Speed Bazooka" ought to be enough warning... "falls apart like shrapnel from a bazooka shell at any kind of speed"....

That's a Smarttech, ain't it?
