The Yokomo YZ-870C returns as a 1/10 4WD kit that captures the original Super Dogfighter essence while offering practical improvements for maintenance and on-track tuning. It appeals to modelers who value authenticity and performance balance.
The FRP chassis retains the original approach to weight and stiffness, and the 2-belt drive carries a familiar feel. The double wishbone suspension responds well to spring and damper tuning common in club-level setups.
Aluminium gearbox housings mirror the era but now accommodate gear differentials and a slipper clutch so modern powertrains can be used without compromising driveline reliability.
Careful reproduction of features such as the roof duct and milky bulkhead caps helps preserve the era look. The 1.9-inch wheels and tyres are true to the period while remaining compatible with a range of replacement compounds.
The Yokomo YZ-870C is well suited to collectors and racers who want a genuine retro build that can be tuned and campaigned in appropriate vintage and club classes.
