The FWD revolution is coming, with a lot of manufacturers recently releasing conversion and full-blown kits.

Exotek has launched theirs as well, taking a stock Tamiya TA07 and, using their conversion kit, transforming it into a mid-motor FWD road rocket!

This video is two parts; the initial unboxing of the parts included in the conversion kit as well as the conversion build itself.

For this, we’ll be using a stock Tamiya TA07 Pro and some race-level electronics:
