Whoa, an 80 MPH RC Skyline

Dec 15 2006, 5:00pm CST | by Shane McGlaun

Maybe it’s the season, but I have a serious RC toy jones right now. I came across the ultimate RC car under the guise of a Nissan Skyline. This little beastie will go over 80 MPH!

Like the monster truck I mentioned this morning, the Skyline is a Nitro fueled RC vehicle. The little engine has 2.1 HP at 40,000 RPM and goes from 0-40 MPH in a mere 1.9 seconds! The entire car measures in at 17” long x 13” wide x 8” high.If the Skyline isn’t your favorite car, you can also get this RC vehicle with the body of a BMW M3, Subaru Rally car, and a F155 Truck. The transmission is a three speed design and is one of the features that give this car its insane top speed. Check it out over at Hobbytron.
