Traxxas Is Bringing Back The 1980s With Mustang 5.0 Notchback R/C Car

Ford Mustang Fox Bodies from the 1980s are popular among muscle car enthusiasts, Mustang fans, and people who like cars from that time period. The fastback and convertible body styles are the most popular, except with drag racers, who prefer the notchback cars for their lighter weight. If you've always wanted a notchback Fox Body but can't have the real thing, there's a 1/10 scale version that promises loads of fun. 

As part of its Drag Slash collection, Traxxas now offers the 1980s notchback Mustang in red or black. Like the classic Chevrolet C10 we saw earlier, Traxxas says the Mustang delivers "the ultimate drag racing experience for racers of all skill levels." The setup is part of the company's "no prep" racing package and includes performance features like Drag Mode with Trans Brake and VXL-3s Electronic Speed Control for quick launches.
