About Boom Racing

What it stands for

Boom Racing says it focuses on "designing the best-looking products that perform well, products that you can beat on the trails and are still good enough to be shelf queens."1 It says its products are "rigorously tested before launch" and that it engineers "R/C products that are fun to build and perform exceptionally well on the trails."1,5

Product portfolio

Every model is a 1/10 scale four-wheel-drive trail truck, and nearly all come as kits for the buyer to build. The BRX01 comes as a bare chassis, with a Killerbody LC70 body, or as the adjustable wheelbase (AWB) chassis in leaf spring and link versions, with or without a ZIL pickup body. The BRX02 carries licensed Land Rover bodies,1 from the Series II and Series III 88 and 109 to the Defender 130 pickup and a 6x6 D110 pickup, with leaf spring and link chassis kits for the D110.
