Take a look at the list of features and see if you can find a better nitro R/C value anywhere. We think not!
The DHK Optimus GP nitro buggy is not just for racers. In fact, DHK designed the Optimus GP to have the quality and features that racers demand, but the ease of use needed by nitro novices. DHK calls their new 1/8 scale nitro units "go have fun" vehicles because fun is the ultimate objective. The Optimus GP can fly at speeds over 40mph and can give you the real racing realism heard in the scream of the engine.
The Optimus GP comes in a ready-to-run package that includes a powerful and easy-to-start 3.5cc pull-start engine, 150cc high-capacity fuel tank, and a 2.4GHz radio system so everyone on the block can race a Optimus with no radio interference at all! With its giant 150cc fuel tank, you won't be stopping every 5 minutes to refuel. You can go for up to 15 minutes on a single tank!
Other top-quality features include aluminum oil-filled coil over shocks, oil filled differentials, completely adjustable turnbuckles, and aluminum upper chassis pieces. DHK durability is key to this truck's amazing design. The Optimus GP is built to take punishment from a number of off-road terrains. Both the aluminum lower chassis and upper chassis pieces are tied together to provide extremely minimal flex. Plus, the whole drive system is supported by ball bearings, and DHK's use of front and rear universal drives provides smooth and efficient power transfer to the Optimus' wheels.
All you need to get started is a glow starter, some AA batteries, and nitro fuel and you're ready to make your introduction into the world of nitro R/C. Its time to get the best 8th scale R/C value for the money.
