So heres some pics of my rally car...

So as you can see the car itself is a bit rough - it came on a set of 16s with the biggest tyres ive ever seen lol so big infact they dont turn well on the rear and allow no travel - the fronts wouldnt turn either so last night we put the 13 inch front wheels off my mates r5 campus with the shittest and thinnest tyres ive ever seen on lol

I also have the two rears so it will be scrapped on them, as you can see our play popped 3 of the tyres and the exhaust fell off...

Cage sold for £50 to be adapted, steels kept, engine ect kept, harness given away along with exhaust, seat to be my new office chair
