Graupner Soar 998 1/8 Nitro Buggy Kit

Soar Seiki is the latest company to hit the 1:8th Scale Competition market with their 998 Buggy.
The 998 is now released after lots of hard work in development, making improvements with new moulding technology, thorough plastic testing, and Geometry tweaks.

The 998 comes complete with Soar's new DBS (direct ball-steer) steering system with the front steering knuckles combining a captive ball pivot on the bottom, with a ball joint top pivot allowing the use of a easily adjustable top arm turnbuckle to adjust the camber angle.

Sparing no expensive Soar have used high quality Swiss 7075-T651 Hard Anodized aluminium throughout including: 3mm Chassis / 4mm Front & Rear Shock Towers / Suspension Mount Plates / and Shock Absorber Bodies.
