Next year's project, drift-lux

Post by Hoppy »

I need something fast again, these new pocket rockets doesn't do it for me, i want something fast, rear wheel drive and it must be or look like a Hilux, some ideas to start off with;

I'll add a Lexus V8, and maybe two hairdryers, i think the vigo body will work better, it's lighter and more aerodynamic.

Any suggestions?
