Description[]
The Trim TRK is a casting depicting a generic Torpedoes-styled pickup truck. Its name is a pun of the terms "Trim," referring to its thin shape, and "Truck," referring to its bodystyle. It was released as a so-called Torpedo. The Torpedo style was a new cartoon style introduced in 2005 and depicts a vehicle in a skinny, Torpedo-like shape with outboard wheels. These unique vehicles perform well on the track, but the exposed wheels make them more susceptible to bending axles in boosters. Re-releases of Torpedoes vehicles have been somewhat limited, if existent at all. Trim TRK is one of only two Torpedoes vehicles with a plastic base; the other is Tor-Speedo. To compensate, the body of the vehicle is made to be quite heavy.
