Rally cars are always an exciting subject, accomplished both on tarmac and dirt. Introducing the Ford Escort Mk.II Rally, this depicts a car that was RAC Rally champion from 1975-1979. This RC model kit is based on the 4WD MF-01X chassis which has dedicated rally parts and is at home on a range of surfaces.
Power is transmitted from the rear mounted motor to the front wheels via a propeller shaft that runs down the side of the MF- 01X. Gearboxes are integrated into the monocoque for a sturdy and easy-to-assemble structure.
The MF-01X has a three-section make-up; changing the central spacer section enables short (210mm), middle (225mm), and long (239mm) wheelbases. The VW Beetle Rally uses the long wheelbase configuration.
