1/10 Onroad/rally car? - RC-Monster Forums

Tamiya makes the DF03ra chassis which is specifically for rally purpose, that could work for what you're thinking about. Here's a link.

Of course there's also the Kyosho Inferno GT with the Subaru body, they can go insanely fast once converted to brushless, I know, I have one but that's 1/8 scale.

Also there's a crap load of hop-ups for the DF03ra on RCmart.com. You can use most of the hop-ups made for the DF03 also as this is the exact chassis the DF03ra is using, the only difference is the shocks/towers are shorter.

Plus one what IGT_7x said, the DF-03Ra. Here is the combo deal from rcmart -

Shame you got rid of the Pure Ten. We used to have them too and bring them to work on nightshifts. Hoon them around the car park for hours & get paid for it, lol. Ah the memories.

IGT_7x - Have you got a thread or pics of your GT anywhere? I'd like to see it?

hooppjs – yes I do have pics, just search for Inferno GT in this forum & it should show up. I tell you what that car on 6s is a blast, you talk about a speed rush. Matter of fact I'm thinking of getting another one but this time the GT2 with the corvette body.

Manne,
Damn it, everytime I go to rcmart I buy something.

I'm going to try my hand at front wheel drive, the mighty mini.

What a sweet looking rig!

Overpowered, brushless front wheel drive time.

Yep, just looking. That is beautiful as with ricemans.
The Kyosho 1/8's have come a long way since the GP20. I'd recommend these as well to Manne if 1/8 scale was ok. I have 5 GP20's I've collected over the decades.

Now, I was in the hobby shop the other day face to face with that GT2 with yellow corvette body. I stood there for 5 minutes staring at it. It is a big car.

Yes it is and the detail is amazing. But you haven't seen big till you've owned a HPI Baja 5t. I have one as well & it's a beast!!

Manne – you should know by now that this hobby is never cheap
