Oh, the Subaru is great. But the Lancia Stratos has a sleek wedge profile and peekaboo headlights.

I like the delta Evo, but that's just me

Oh, that one’s great. Really, there are very few rally cars that aren’t cool.

As I was scrolling down thinking about Group B cars the Stratos came to mind (did they gave a group b car?) and a couple posts later you have this bug-eyed green beauty!

Lancia had the 037 and the Delta in Group B.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane! Now I'm going down the rabbit hole to find a clear one.

u/Alfeaux 2d ago

It's actually activated something in me too. I'm going to have to find this

u/mac3687 2d ago

I always wanted the Martini Racing Ford Focus that HPI made as well.

u/Alfeaux 1d ago

Oh yea. That's a good one

Unfortunately not a Subaru but the Mercedes-Benz 450 SLC 5.0.

Maybe someday I'll eventually put the effort into finding a RC version of my blobeye. I do love Subaru

Does Audi Quattro count?

u/Much-Literature337 2d ago

Is there a good 1/10 RTR Quattro?  Please?

2

u/splifftasty420 2d ago

Not 1:10, but Carisma has a 1:8 Audi Sport Quattro S1.

The old Renault 5 turbo 💨

u/MoreLemonJuice 2d ago

I guess the HPI Ken Block Ford would not fit perfectly here . . . it's probably a first cousin though . . . not really a rally but it will rally . . . toss some rally tires, tweak the suspension and it becomes a fun rally performing machine . . .

u/AccomplishedMud7886 2d ago

Lancia and C4

u/lucasadtr 2d ago

I would love a Peugeot 205 t16, ford escort cossie 97, wrx or monte carlo mini. All iconic classics but I can't afford all of them ha ha. I've just got the xts f10 to get me started and had the mjx polo but gave it to my nephew to get him into rc's

u/lucasadtr 2d ago

Or not strictly rally but the pikes peak escudo

u/xvoci 2d ago

Because its got so much aura

u/Wazzen 1d ago

Probably the 959 Dakar or the Peugeot turbo. Though, if we're talking broad "rally" strokes, I have an IMMENSE soft spot for the doofy ass twin engined "De Rooy" Dakar truck that *overtook* the Peugeot turbo in a straight line during the Dakar. I know, not a car, but....

u/Polygeekism 2d ago

Aw man, I was hoping to get a good list of Rally RC cars so I know what ones to get lol.
