I really love that Pikes Peak Escudo. Its iconic, nothing else like it. That car was awsome with its power/weight ratio.

I really want an Impreza body. Preferably the newest 4-door body style so it matches whats in the driveway.

I will be happy with any Subby body but I would prefer the option of a non-WRC decal set.

**snowslider** · 10-09-2012 07:10 AM

I would love to see a Suzuki Escudo body... It's just epic.

**BomberSTi** · 10-09-2012 12:15 PM

+1 ocd rc on the suby body but Id rather see a 05 STi, so it can match whats sitting in my driveway..lol

**I EAT DIRT** · 10-09-2012 12:48 PM

HaHa, Bomber I was going to say the same thing. Just sold My modded 02 wrx, but want an 05 sti to build now. The guy who tuned my 02 is in Alb. NM.

**rustler1999929** · 10-09-2012 02:22 PM

I would like it to be like

**Emaxx2.0** · 10-09-2012 02:56 PM

Lancia 037

Ford RS200 Evo

**rag6** · 10-09-2012 03:31 PM

Ya got me, the rs200 would be as cool as the Escudo....

yeah those are cool cars..... but mines going to look like this after I drop a castle in it

**rag6** · 10-09-2012 04:14 PM

Batmobile rally... interesting.

**cunawarit** · 10-09-2012 04:59 PM

Depends how I am feeling, and depends how crazy the power is

With 3S power maybe something like Pikes Peak Escudo pictured above.

With less more controllable 2S power well I've always been a huge fan of the Renault 5 Turbo...

But that wouldn't work well with the Rally 4x4 chassis (RWD).

So perhaps a Lacia Delta HF Integrale:

Or an Escort Cosworth:

**rag6** · 10-09-2012 05:07 PM

The options are so wide open its funny, a "LeCar" would be really cool! I think it would work in scale... The hood seems tall enough to accommodate the shock towers.

**LCDRACER** · 10-09-2012 07:12 PM

yeah im going to make a batman theme one and probably go with one of the ford rally cars but the wheel and tire combos are going to be insane!!!! mud, snow, gravel, asphalt.......this is going to be a cool machine!!! im looking forward to the LCG frame, hopefully we can take fast turns and not flip like the slash!!

**rag6** · 10-09-2012 07:32 PM

I am thinking 1/8 buggy badlands would be a great all terrain spec tire. This car should not come with sct tires/rims

**LCDRACER** · 10-09-2012 08:26 PM

yeah i was going to see how my proline dirt hawgs do on it.........their amazing on my merv and its used as an all terrain vehicle....it will be a little loose on the dirt though

**4sdash** · 10-09-2012 10:31 PM

the escort cosworth would be cool

**ksb51rl** · 10-09-2012 11:58 PM

Audi Sport Quattro S1

Lancia Stratos

Peugeot 206 WRC

& video:

**DiggerPede** · 10-10-2012 06:07 AM

Fiat 500 Abarth! Old or new the Superbowl Commercial gets me everytime.

New

**rag6** · 10-10-2012 05:43 PM

If the stratos body will clear the shock towers I am in... Only shame is that its not 4x4

Wonder rc4wd will produce some outrageously high priced scale vintage rally rims...

**mark c** · 10-10-2012 05:52 PM

I'm too dumb to post pics but maybe some of the older guys will get a kick from this:
How bout an AMC Eagle?

Or better yet a Hornet? They were 4x4s LOL

Okay, going with the Batmobile/movie theme I had to pick probably my all time favorite movie car. I will not post pics since I want to see how many of you have actually seen the movie. This body would be sweet on the rally chassis even though it isn't a rally car. Again, shock tower clearance could be an issue. Let's hear from everyone who has seen the movie.

Ewww. It's all SHEENY!

**dcsally97** · 10-10-2012 06:47 PM

^Good one ksb!!!

**mark c** · 10-10-2012 08:25 PM

Forgot all about that movie. Cool idea dc!
And thanks much for editing my post ksb! I never saw one in my life without rust on it though haha

**DiggerPede** · 10-11-2012 07:02 AM

Oooooooh "The Wraith" car. How clean is that. LOL

**rraattrroodd** · 10-11-2012 03:34 PM

Is this going to be bigger than a 1/10 touring car? Can we use the 200mm and 190mm body's on them?

**cunawarit** · 10-11-2012 03:37 PM

Its WAY bigger, its 297mm wide. It's really a 1/8 scale.

Sweet idea

I can't help but feel those AWD AMCs came too early

They were Subarus before us in the west knew about Subarus

**MooseSlash** · 10-11-2012 06:48 PM

Epic.

**Corex2** · 10-12-2012 07:13 AM

my slash will be converted as soon as parts are available.

**rag6** · 10-12-2012 10:01 PM

That is a good replica. What body is in the last pic, and what chassis is it designed for? Is it a 1/8 body???

Thunder Tiger ER-4 G3 Mini Countryman WRC body
Length: 480mm
Width: 305-310mm
Wheelbase: 330mm
It's called a 1:8 vehicle.

1/10 Rally Dimensions
Length: 552mm
Track: 297mm
Wheelbase: 324mm

Edit: Clear version

**rag6** · 10-13-2012 10:33 PM

That is sweet, a HUGE mini!

**slash4x46269** · 10-15-2012 02:08 PM

I prefer the ford focus body. I believe koyosh drx nitro is a 1/9 scale. Would the 9th scale body fit on the Traxxas rally?

**turok** · 10-16-2012 02:57 AM

kyosho do a 1/8 scale and the bodies fit the slash 4x4 so they should fit the rally.

**scottinvt** · 10-16-2012 04:05 AM

With all the Rally and Slash hype we should see more bodies that fit the slash !!

**01D5CH001** · 10-16-2012 11:05 AM

**Redsawacs** · 10-16-2012 11:45 AM

there is no argument or conversation about this - at all!! This is the original and ONLY Rally car!

ok, let the fun begin.....

**DiggerPede** · 10-16-2012 12:43 PM

Oh no you didnt go there!!! ^^^ Probably one of my most fav cars of all time!!!!

Yee-haw!!
