Hi all, i have just come back to racing and have a second hand KF2 which seems to be set up with the motor quite far forward and for dry astro.

a few guys at my club also have a second car for wet conditions, or as a donor car for spares.

Would the KR still be competitive on wet/greasy astroturf or has rear motor cars had their day in the UK?

Hi, I think it should be with appropriated setup, 'though it won't turn as fast as midship transmission cars, but if the track is twitchy I would give it a try!

Used to run a kd as wet car, the kc was always faster, but not as safe, I'd expect the same from a kr
