Team Magic M1B Turbo

Following on rather quickly from the much hyped initial release of the Team Magic M1B, comes the follow up to that buggy, the M1B Turbo. Although no further details were given other than announcing its impending release, we believe that the ‘Turbo’ has been created to give the platform a new beginning, and to address those initial quality, durability and performance problems that has already witnessed a free update pack given to 1st generation buggy owners, and seen one of their main team drivers leave to race HoBao. More information when we get it.
