The Tamiya 1998 Ford Escort Custom 1/10 4WD Electric Touring Car Kit is modeled after the Ford Escort in a customized street version of the WRC car, and sits upon the TT-02 chassis. The full size car was powered by an Inline-4 2.0L engine offering 295HP and 361lbft of torque.
TT-02: Adaptable, balanced shaft driven 4WD
The shaft-driven 4WD TT-02 chassis employs a longitudinal layout with the battery on the left and the motor on the right, to give excellent stability. In addition, it features identical left and right suspension arms and uprights for ease of assembly, plus easy-to-maintain gearboxes. It is a highly adaptable chassis, as it offers 2 different wheelbases, 2 ground clearance settings and 2 tread set-ups in addition to a range of 10 possible gear ratios. It is not short on looks either, with brake disc-shaped wheel hubs and stylish front bumper supports.
