LOL Matt. I was thinking some remote video camera while running in the dirt!
It's electric. I'm not really a fan of nitro even though they may be faster. Just too much maintenance.
Jansen, yeah, pretty good build.

I think in the real car that scoop was non-functional anyway and that's why they put the sticker there ? The slats in front of the "Subaru World Rally Team" decal were functional.
