The legendary Yokomo YZ-834B Wonder Dogfighter returns – a faithful reissue of the car that carried Gil Losi Jr. to victory at the first IFMAR 1/10 Off-Road World Championship in 1985. Known as the “Winning Dogfighter,” this iconic buggy set the standard for competition RC and remains one of the most celebrated machines in racing history.
Designed as a race-tuned evolution of the original Dogfighter, this reissue combines nostalgic detail with championship-proven performance features, including:
-
Dual Rear Shock Dampers – Signature “Wonder Dog” twin shocks with bronze-anodized aluminum cylinders, blending period authenticity with smooth suspension action.
-
Reinforced Main Chassis – Ribbed design increases rigidity for improved handling and durability, offering a more robust structure than the original flat plate chassis.
-
Aerodynamic Body – Recreated with competition styling to enhance downforce, grip, and authentic World Championship presence.
-
Lightweight, Rigid Suspension Arms – Redesigned for strength and precision, delivering improved crash resistance and sharper cornering control.
-
Competition-Spec Bumpers & Torque Limiter – Compact protection and drivetrain tuning for reliable performance on demanding tracks.
The Wonder Dogfighter reissue isn’t just a collectible—it’s a chance to relive the machine that defined an era of RC racing. Whether displayed as a piece of history or taken to the track, this kit embodies the spirit of world-class competition.
