One of the winner designs in the 2018 Mini 4WD design contest, it was designed by AF_KURO.
General info[]
The Razorback taking the inspiration from the shape of the feral pig, usually refers to as razorback in the US. The car features the low flat short nose, high long deck open-wheel body design, with the unusual front windows that were not unlike the classic hot rods.
