HPI WR8 3.0 WRC 2001 Subaru Impreza Nitro RTR Rally Car

WR8 3.0 WRC 2001 Subaru Impreza 1/8 Ready-To-Run Nitro Rally Car Kit. Any rally fan will recognize the illustrious of blue and yellow livery as one of the most recognizable in Rally, and what better way to herald the return of HPI's fan favorite rally platform than with a classic officially licensed 2001 WRC Subaru Impreza!

Underneath the officially licensed and famous replica Impreza body, the WR8 3.0 chassis is based on the HPI Bullet RC monster truck, which means it's massively tough and can take a real beating on or off-road! The WR8 3.0 is powered by an easy-to-use and powerful Nitro Star G3.0 HO engine with an all-aluminum construction and 32,000 Max RPM, delivering power through the same tough bevel gear differentials and fully ball bearing-supported 4WD shaft drivetrain of the Bullet monster truck. With authentic rally suspension geometry, oil-filled dampers and extra-thick sway bars to provide you with supreme control on dirt or tarmac! Top it off with high-spec, soft compound tires and authentic rally wheels and you've got an instant head-turner in your fleet!

This HPI Racing WR8 is loaded with supreme features that enhance its durability anywhere you want to take it, including a high ground clearance, skid plate, foam front bumper, optimized rally-style suspension geometry, shock debris guards, mud deflectors on the chassis and much more. It's the ideal machine to race your friends on RC Rally-style courses and multi-surface tracks, or anywhere the road takes you!
