Description
The Overbored 454T is a Torpedo execution of Phil Riehlman's 2001 First Editions Overbored 454 model. The Torpedo style was a new cartoon style introduced in 2005 and depicts a car as a skinny Torpedo like shape with outboard wheels. These models should work 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.
