Thanks for the update Pitman. I really like the looks of the SK-10 and the specs looks good as well...i do hope there'll be a pro kit available in the near future. By the looks of the pic and the specs, the buggy comes with big bore shocks right?

Hiya All,

Yes, as Lee has said. Caster Racing have made most final moldings for the buggy and i can confirm they are in PS1 build satge ( Pre-Series Build ). We hope to see some of the Production models very soon. We will do our best to keep you all updated.

The buggy from the Description, Pictures and Info sheet sound like a real competitor but we shall wait and see if the proof is in the puding when they arrive over here.

There is no actual release date as of yet and neither is there a set price or variation. It is unknown if they will release this as a Roller or a RTR Model but be assured that we will endevour to provide the information you so wish to hear.

I can confirm that Caster are currently in the process of making Aluminuin Hop Up / Upgrade parts which will be interesting to see.

You can find all updates and news on Caster Racing over at our dedicated UK Caster Racing website: www.casterracinguk.com

HTH
Ben
