![]() Absolutely! And it also gives me memories every time I look at it. The Turbo Optima was my first serious R/C as a kid (not this sample though).

Nice car, just managed to get one myself, thought mine was the first optima, but it looks the same as yours, what makes it a turbo?

Mainly gold shocks and bearings, but you had also on the Turbo box a 240S motor, a motor guard, a chassis protection, beefier arms, a kind of slipper clutch, antiroll bars, front universals...
Aaah memories ![]()

Brings back memories!
I never recall having the optionhouse gold shocks or anti roll bar! Then again it was a long time ago! ended up using Rc shocks and doing the belt conversion! Wish I still had her! |
