Default Your dream car- what would it have?

For me, it would have to be an RDX with unbreakable parts

Would like to find a good tricked up Shumacher Axis loved mine until I lent it to a mate who wanted to start racing again not seen it since. A B4 factory team and a BJ4 worlds both powered by novac brushless with KO servos and radio gear decent batteries and charger and a power supply and generator.(You never know those six numbers might come up)

Mine would have a computer controlled guidance system to get round the track faster than Craggy! And proximity sensors to avoid first corner pile ups!

that would be the worst car I could ever have! half the fun is trying to keep control of the car on the edge

Not saying thats what i would prefere, just better than doing nothing at all!!

Personally i would like a car that never breaks, never needs motors skimmed, batteries that last all day on one charge, tyres that never wear but give up good grip, and electrics that never get outdated!!

Id have tyres that sense holes in the ground and then grow bulges to make it feel like no hole exists. Capable of turning the wheels square so the car can be driven up and down steps.

Id love to have tried the LRP traction control unit that was once prototyped and then banned.

No, the unit that Chris is on about was wheel sensor based, matching the rear wheels to be within a certain percentage of the front wheels speed.
