1/10 buggies with cages or roll bars?

Post by kink »

I am wondering if you guys can help list some 1/10 cars which came with cages (half, or full) or even just roll over hoops. I am trying to get some inspiration for an idea which may or may not happen. But if I have some names to google I can have a think. Clearly metal would be cooler (if it is light) but I am also gaining ideas from some of the plastic shapes out there too. I am thinking of making something to go over the rear half of an RC10. Maybe even make it out of carbon or light metal.

Ok I will start with the Ultima:

Thanks :D

Could get aftermarket rear bars to make it two-thirds metal. ;)



Tamiya had the Rough Rider/Superchamp, and Hot Shot.

The Marui with the cage was the Galaxy; the Hunter had a Lexan body. ;)
