Description
Details
The NB16 is an incredibly detailed and feature packed model with adjustable and threaded oil filled shocks, adjustable suspension top link length as well as adjustable roll centre with anti roll-bars!
These models can be raced almost anywhere and there are now even dedicated tracks and events. It's also great fun just to make a back yard course out of anything you can find around the house and in no time you'll have your garden converted into an action packed track! Nitrotek was the first company in the U.K. to release a mini nitro buggy and the NB16 is still the market leader. No radio controlled car collection is complete without one of these. The NB16 nitro cars come fully built with all radio equipment included. If you want a model that you can race both seriously at tracks but also have some fun with at home then this is the model to go for.
As compact as this buggy is, in the pictures above you can see the grub screw through the front wishbone which can be adjusted to limit the amount of "droop" the suspension has. All four corners of this car have this feature which helps to fine tune the handling characteristics. This buggy is clearly focused on maximum fun and performance in equal measure. We have lots of parts and upgrades for this model so you can customize and upgrade it to make it even better.
ALUMINIUM CHASSIS
Solid aluminium chassis with countersunk screws is light but strong. Added splash guards will keep the inside nice and dry.
FANTASTIC 1:16 SCALE
This nifty 1:16 scale Buggy is ready for on and off-road terrain!
POWERFUL SH .07 ENGINE
A brand new .07 nitro engine gives lots of power making the buggy very fast.
38cc FUEL TANK
A decent sized fuel tank so you can spend more time racing and less time refueling.
ADJUSTABLE SUSPENSION
Adjustable oil-filled shocks with adjustable coils, adjustable angle and adjustable droop giving you full setup tuning. Works with the anti-roll bars to give exceptional handling.
DROOP SCREWS
The adjustable droop screws allow you to easily adjust how low the model sits for fine tuning the model to suit different tracks and driving conditions. This advanced adjustment is usually only found on more expensive models.
FULLY BALL RACED
14 ball bearings are used throughout the model instead of standard metal bearings to give a smoother ride and faster speed.
TWO COLOURS AVAILABLE
The NB16 is available in a choice of Blue/Yellow or Red/Yellow colours

Question:
how fast is the car
Answers:
- Posted byon Sunday, 17 January 2016
Hi, we don't really like to quote speeds because manufacturers always exagerate and so do our competitors. So if we are honest and quote real speeds and our competitors exagerate then people will buy from the exagerating competitors because they will believe what they say. The best thing is to do a search of the model you are interested in on youtube so you can actually see it going.
