That looks like fun

 

I am working on the rc version, having a hard time getting the body to fit my mini lst monster truck. Will post some pics later.

 

that would make the perfect winter complement to a summer racer.

i always loved the super 1600 rally cars. I would love to do a mini up like a super 1600 car (but keep the sc).

 

PGT, that vid ruled... I wanna do that!

 

I don't think it's AWD, but I could certainly be wrong. As for "dirt kicking up", my normal rear tires kick up snow and dirt when driven over those types of surfaces, for example. Some toe out on the rear suspension will allow it to oversteer for better poise in limited grip conditions.

But it's all speculation until someone who knows about the actual car can give us some input.

 

mc2 mag did a piece on off road preping a MINI, in fact 3, to run from South Africa to Morroco. They detailed some lifting and strut work if I remember.. bdog1
