As some of you know I traded my Baja for an MCD rally. It's winging it's way from bonny Scotland right now. Should be here next week.

Today I went to the LHS to trade my last nitro car and full race setup (an Xray NT1 including EVERYTHING anyone would need to race, including pit hauler, starter box, EVERYTHING), for a gas boat. When I got into the shop, I saw a blueline MCD Rally with a red Mitsubishi EVO body, and, er... don't quite know how to say this, but, er, it's coming home with me on Tuesday.

So now I have a 510mm wheelbase peugeot bodied proline with Zen 26cc and TOPSA pipe, AND a 535mm wheelbase Mitsi bodied blueline with Zen 26cc and Samba F1 pipe. Now I need 3 more servos and another receiver. DOH!

Oh well. At least I can play with a friend now. lol!

Blueline will become a dedicated drifter. Proline will become a dedicated rally car. Wahey, best of both worlds!

I did love it, but I'm not gonna sit on $2000 I'm not using. Simple as that. All my nitro stuff is completely gone now, I don't even own a single nitro related car, tool or accessory any more.

Oh, they're very different, one's white and red, and the other's, er, red and white...Well, one's a rally car and one's, no... that's not it either...

OK, one's 25mm longer and has a different pipe. HA!

I wanted a rally for a year, then got two in a week. Somebody stop me!

You will love both of them.
These rally cars look great in action and drifting in 1:5 is the way to go, forget all the 1:10 drift cars this is absolutely awesome.
