This is the Tamiya XV-02 Pro Chassis 4wd Rally Kit. Designed as an all out 4WD rally machine the XV-02 uses durable shaft driven drivetrain and a mid motor location. This results in the front and rear driveshafts to be equal lengths giving a true 50/50 torque split. Adding to the adjustments Tamiya has given you two different differential gear options. These give you the ability to over-drive or under-drive the front or rear differential catering the handling to your liking. Helping to control this power are the long aluminum shocks giving the XV-02 an abundance of plush suspension travel. Tamiya has packed this vehicle with tons of features designed to give you the ultimate driving experience. With a ground up rally design the XV-02 is ready to handle everything from tarmac to dirt.
