They hard to get parts for, some the older models they don’t make parts for now & if they do can be limited quantities hard to get . I’ve an old Mugen mbx 6. It needs a rebuild but to buy parts you end up scouring different shops to find anything and by time you find everything & add shipping for all these items from different stores it becomes hard to justify the spending to refresh an old buggy. If you can find another buggy the same maybe worth buying just as a parts car. But yours is even older than mine so not sure which model it is look at the old mbx models maybe you’ll find it.

Looks like an old "sport 4x4", early 90's rig.

Maybe this will help, I didn't even notice the fact it said super sport right on the wing till now so that's most likely the "sport" model it is.

I had an MBX4 RR from around 1999. I raced it well into 2004. Your Super Sport is older. Probably from 1992-1993.

It's a nice vintage, and similar in style to the old Kyosho Burns. The Futaba S9302 was more typical for a throttle servo, with 7kg torque and 60°/0.19 sec. Very slow for steering for a racing buggy.

Never heard of the Drastic Racing Engine. In fact, that engine is fascinating - try and find out more about it, because it's even rarer than the buggy!

I don't recognize the cooling head but the old blue block below it screams vintage picco to me.

You're right - it definitely looks like 'Drastic' based their engines on Picco. Perhaps they were after market engine modifiers?

• These engines were essentially re-badged or modified versions of original Picco engines (manufactured by Picco Micromotori in Italy). Picco has a long-standing reputation for producing durable, high-revving, and powerful racing engines, especially in the common .21 (3.5cc) and .12 (2.11cc) classes.
