1/16 Ken Block Fiesta VXL RTR

In 2005, DC Shoes co-founder and accomplished snowboarder and motocross rider Ken Block entered his first pro rally race. Today, Ken Block is one of the most recognized names in motorsports. Beyond his success in the Rally America and World Rally Championship series, Block is best known for his gymkhana skills, as over 50 million YouTube views will attest. In his specially-prepared Ford Fiesta Gymkhana car, Bloc k combines laserprecise driving with tire-smoking fury to perform seemingly impossible moves. His on-road acrobatics require a vehicle that can deliver intense power through all four wheels, with the responsiveness and “feel” that only a finely tuned machine can provide. In radio control , that car is the Ken Block Gymkhana Fiesta from Traxxas. This officially licensed special-edition race replica features the unmistakable Ken Bloc k/ Monster Energy graphics of Ken Block’s full-size Ford Fiesta competition car. The specially tuned suspension and tire compounds let you ride t he slip angle with thrilling precision, drifting the car sideways through turns and putting your skills to the test as you master gymkhana-style d riving right in your own driveway. The Velineon® brushless power system combines with 4-wheel drive to give the Gymkhana Fiesta asphalt-shredding muscle and a driving experience that’s like nothing else in R/C. The Gymkhana Fiesta utilizes the award-winning Revo’s F-1 inspired, rocker-actuated suspension system which has been expertly engineered for 1/16 Gymkhana racing right down to the oil-filled, threaded-body GTR shocks and rally-tuned progressive-rate springs. The all-wheel drive system rides on full ball bearings and delivers smooth efficient power through the Torque-Control™ slipper clutch, planetary gear differentials, and Traxxas’ proven telescoping u-joint drive shafts. The suspension and driveline are fully integrated into the compact chassis. Intricately molded as a single piece, the chassis balances strength, weight, function, and style in an impressive achievement of packaging and performance optimization that could only come from Traxxas.
