WR8 Flux 1996 Ford Escort RS Cosworth

With its classic Orange, Red, and White Repsol livery, this rally legend is instantly recognizable to fans and stands as one of the most celebrated liveries of its era. What better way to expand the fan-favorite WR8 platform than with this timeless Group A Ford Escort RS Cosworth!

Underneath the officially licensed and famous replica Ford Escort body, the WR8 FLUX chassis is massively tough and can take a real beating on- or off-road! The WR8 FLUX is powered by a massive 3700KV brushless motor and waterproof 3S-capable speed controller, delivering power through tough metal gear differentials and the fully ball-bearing-supported 4WD shaft drivetrain. With authentic rally suspension geometry, oil-filled dampers, and extra-thick sway bars, you'll enjoy exceptional control, whether on dirt or tarmac. Plus, high-spec soft compound tires and genuine rally wheels ensure your ride not only performs but turns heads wherever you go!

The HPI Racing WR8 is packed with features designed to enhance durability, whether you're tearing up the track or hitting rugged terrain. It includes high-ground clearance, a skid plate, foam front bumper, optimized rally-style suspension geometry, shock debris guards, mud deflectors, and much more. This is the perfect machine for racing friends on RC Rally-style courses, multi-surface tracks, or anywhere your adventures take you!
