Add some cool factor to your GT class, or any class that uses Touring cars, road course or oval. Classic Hot Rod styling with the latest aero of the front splitter and add on rear wing. Very low profile and sure to turn heads. Crank up the ZZ Top on the headphones and go racing. You will feel the smile come on your face!!!
A great look. It's different and very cool. Outstanding work!

There is an ebay seller who has this in a 1/10th body. I think it is a Hong Kong shop

I wish Protoform would re-release some of their older scale looking Touring car bodies for USGT, Something like the RSX the Volvo S60 and the Nissan Alitima. You know from back when Touring cars kinda looked like the real thing.

That Hot Rod GT body has got my name on it!

My Midnite Drag with Hank Revere.

I was stopped at a red lite with my 406 (Ford)
runnin three two barrels and a four speed stick
I looked in the mirror and cummin up behind
was a loud red Chevy 409

I waited a second when the lite turned green
and he roared up beside me, lookin kinda mean
rolled down his window, looked at my flags
then yelled real loud, "You wanna drag?"
I said "no"(at least not much)
but when he said go I popped the clutch!

still burnin' rubber when I hit second gear
but the roar of his engine was all I could hear
so I skipped third and went into high
man he looked mad as I went by

Up ahead was a stop sign
he didn't stop, neither did I
and I heard that siren as we went by

I knew right then
that this race should end
with the cops behind and ahead a sharp bend
so I shut down to end this ride
but as he tore thru the lite pole, Hank Revere died

Now theres a moral to this story thats plain to see
DON'T RACE ON THE HIGHWAY or you'll be in a cell like me!

I think Team Blue Groove also has a BMW M1 body.

Buy at your own risk....those look like the worst pulled bodies, that I have ever seen.

I have had a couple of Team Blue Groove bodies for my M06. They are good bodies, but no window mask. They are durable. I've never had a 190mm or 200mm body.

Yeah, that's a bit much for a piece of plastic that's going to be seeing a fair share of abuse. Well, at least in my hands..

This season I ended up with an HPI 911 (it was cheap!) and now there are like three or four in our club. Of course, I did it up in my Rodarbal livery. The only decals are the head and tail lights, and the Porsche emblem on the hood. I think I'll go with the McAllister street rod body next...
