it can be done, depending on how high your suspension arms can go..no prb..as long as the ground clearance is achieved and your transmission is closed.

Depends on which kit you're using...TL-01?

it would be best if your kit has an enclosed transmission like TB02, TL01, TT01, RS4, Losixxx, etc...those with open transmission like TA05,TA04, etc...well, better not cos firstly, expensive...and spurs and pinion will get killed in the 1st 5 minutes...if it can last that long..

Some questions:

-What hardness of inserts should you run with rally blocks? I would say soft because in real life the rougher the terrain, the less the air pressure.

What hardness of inserts should you run with radials? I would think medium as you still have to negotiate small bumps.

-What damper oil is suitable for rally set up? Would the stock #900 oil be suitable? I mean if for a stock setup (general purpose?) it is ok, then it should be okay too. Not too soft, not too hard.

Any ideas?

You sure can. In the days of Group B cars, a lot of them had MR configuration. Then Audi had the 4WD and everybody else became 4WD.

Last time when i played Gran Turismo 2, my favourite off road cars were MR: Ford GT40, Lancia Stratos amongst others.
