looking for a good onroad car to turn into a rally car

[rustla]

EDIT: forgot to mention im looking for a 10th scale one

TC3 or XXX-S.

I took a xxx-s, cut off the suspension stops, put longer shocks on it and put in a xxx-4 slipper. I couldn't believe the stuff I was doing with this car on a 10th scale dirt track. The rally class and my local track has died, but for some reason I hang on to the car.

Nice XXX-S Scott! I was considering doing a similar coversion a while back after reading an article about it as a rally car.

I have the TC3 rally conversion and it's real nice, with buggy shocks it handles better than my RS4 Rally.

The 4-tec rally conversion looks nice too.

Didn't HPI have an electric version of their rally car?

yep, the RS4 Rally http://www.hpiracing.com/kits/rally/r-m.htm
It's a great option too if you can find one.

Yokomo used to have a rally car called the MR4 rally. I used to have in but never put it together. They still sell the chassis as a rtr version but its a truck body I believe.
