FTX RC Supaforza GT 1/7 Brushless RTR | CompetitionX

FTX RC Supaforza GT 1/7 Brushless RTR | CompetitionX

FTX RC is entering the ‘BIG’ leagues with the release of their 1/7 scale Supaforza GT brushless RTR!

This kit looks quite cool and it’s large-scale, down-low look, Fastrax treaded tires, spoked wheels and Mustang-ish body set. Underneath, the Supaforza GT comes equipped with a Hobbywing 150A ESC, 2000kV 4-pole brushless motor and is ready for up to 6S of power.

There’s also a ton going on with the chassis – beefy arms and towers, oil-filled shocks, stout drivetrain and some blue aluminum bits here and there. There’s also a full under-chassis bodywork to help the Supaforza slip through the air!

What We Like:
The Supaforza GT, on paper, looks quite amazing. It’s well laid-out with a good set of electronics, so hitting the magic triple-digit mark could be in this cars future. We guess it wants to go head-to-head against ARRMA’s Felony/Infraction/Limitless and the Traxxas XO-1, so we’ll have to see who’s going to get the first one up to those crazy speeds. It MIGHT just be a decently-priced alternative for speed freaks.

What We’re Not Sure About:
Parts availability here in the US. That might be a tough one.
