|  Jeep vs. Scorpion Comparison
There's a couple of differences between the two... The Scorpion weighs 2lbs, 10oz RTR The Jeep weighs 2lbs, 13oz RTR The Scorpion has 90+ degree approach and departure angles, the Jeep does not due to the front stinger and rear overhang of the body. The Jeep is less apt to nose over on a descent thanks to the front stinger. The rear overhang of the Jeep and the tall cage also help keep the Jeep from rolling onto its lid. That's about all I could find. As far as running gear they're the exact same. Badger told me that someone said the Scorpion crawls better, figured I'd take a look at differences between the two.

so he's a jeep nut in a jar. If you take the stinger off the jeep you get almost 90 degree aproach, but you nose over

I put my stinger on the rear to help flipping over backwardsin between the body and tonneau cover. Has saved me more times there than in the front. But then again......I am obsessed with this thing. .........work..........I have to go to work?!?!?!? TheTrav |
