The '''Overbored 454T''' is a ''Torpedo'' execution of Phil Riehlman's [[2001 First Editions]] [[Overbored 454]] model. It was #8 of 10 vehicles in the Torpedoes series. The ''Torpedo'' style was a new cartoon style introduced in 2005 and depicts a car in a skinny, ''Torpedo''-like shape with outboard wheels. These unique vehicles should perform well on track sets but the exposed wheels make them more susceptible to bending axles. They're probably better suited for gravity-driven tracks than Wall Tracks or tracks with a [[Booster]]. This series appears to be loosely based off of the 2003 Kawasaki ZXR-9 Concept. Re-releases of Torpedoes vehicles have been somewhat limited, if existent at all.
