Make sure you upgrade the chassis with bearings and oil shocks. You'll enjoy it. Real fun on top of ice crusted snow!

I am not really an Rally fan, but that little guy is just ugly enough that I am going to keep an eye out for one at a later date.
I might have to start cutting my grass shorter...

Are those good chassis? I was about to get an mk2 escort but the chassis looks so outdated. I'm probably wrong, I don't know anything about it

It's basically a rear motor TL01. Tough as nails and a decent handler. Definitely add oil shocks and bearings though.

Multiple wheelbases, 4 different track widths, ball or gear diffs, it's a very versatile chassis. I have 3 in various configurations.
