Easily the coolest Touring Car ever built and a shrunken one would make an AWESOME mini....

Yes anthony the yokomo yrf2 was on of the best built FWD but it got outlawed at the tamiya ff01 races. *It was just to fast*

But you could never build a "FF mini" (Front motor-Front wheel drive mini) I try doing it with my 'ol m04 by putting the motor upfront with a graghit chassis behind. I had everything mocked up ready mount to drill and bolt. But I couldn't mount a mini body, due to NNOOO room infront so I FAILED

Now I'm going to make the same as the yrf2 but the motor behind the axel and a 2.5mm nitro chassis. We'll see.
