The perfect mix of heritage and all-out epic action

The Subaru World Rally Team first hit the track in 1989 and went on to grab a record 46 rally wins with the Impreza and multiple Constructors' and Drivers' Championships, competing in the WRC longer than any other manufacturer team in their current form. Subaru used the team to showcase its all wheel drive technology and thrill spectators with the ferocious nature of the vehicle. 

How fitting then that under the officially licensed replica body, the 1/8th 4WD shaft driven WR8 is ready to go to work thrashing down the lanes in true WRC style. Powered by your choice of NITRO or brushless FLUX power!

The HPI Racing WR8 is crammed with awesome features that enhance its durability anywhere you want to take it, including a high ground clearance, skidplate, foam front bumper, optimized rally-style suspension geometry, custom-designed shock towers and dampers, shock debris guards, mud deflectors on the chassis plus extra-thick sway bars for extra control! It's the ideal machine to race your friends on rally stages and multi-surface tracks, or anywhere you like!

The WR8 FLUX is powered by a massive 4000KV brushless motor and waterproof 3S-capable speed controller, delivering power through tough metal gear differentials and the fully ball bearing-supported 4WD shaft drivetrain. If instant torque is your thing then the FLUX MMH-4000 motor delivers massive power at the blip of the throttle. Whilst the FLUX EMH-3S electronic speed control is able to handle the latest, 3S LiPo batteries in its stride.
