RSS Feed Picco Torque .21 & .12 competition engines

Developed by Picco for the 1/8th on road and 1/10 touring class the Torque .21 & .12 are high performance racing engines. Designed by Edoardo Picco, all components are made with the finest materials. Durability and reliability are also of the highest level thanks to our many years of experience in 2 stroke engines, know-how of raw-materials and our precise machining process. The Torque delivers great power over the entire rpm range with the best ever fuel efficiency, with the .21 given particular attention to improving mid range acceleration due to the increased traction from the latest generation of 1/8th on-road chassis’. Both engines are also available in an EDO Modified version which are hand modified by Edoardo Picco himself taking performance to the max.
