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.Pay It Forward.

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:

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.

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!!

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

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.

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

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?

10-16-2012 02:57 AM #36
kyosho do a 1/8 scale and the bodies fit the slash 4x4 so they should fit the rally.
