In this video, I get ready for the new Jan 2021 Tamiya, Escort Rally Mk2 Release by building a replacement higher-end, rear-wheel-drive M-08 Concept chassis that will replace the basic kits 4WD MF-01X chassis. As I'm sure you know, the Ford Escort Rally was a rear-wheel-drive car back in in the day, so I felt it could be worth swapping out the chassis for more tail-out gravel action.
Over the coming weeks, we will build and run the Escort Rally on the two chassis and find out if it's a worthwhile upgrade or should you spend your money upgrading the kit MF-01X chassis instead.
