Mid-Engined Rear Wheel Drive

 

We are in the process of building a mid-engined, rear wheel drive car to compete in Australian gravel rallies in 2019. A gravel Rally Exige will be a first (as far as we know) but it should be fun to drive and spectacular to watch. Mid-engined and rear drive cars were the peak of development in 2wd rally cars.

Mid engined rear drive vehicles have done well in the past. The Lancia 037 was the last of the 2wd cars to win rallies before Group B ended

The history is inspiring. Our aim is to turn heads once again. An Exige has more than a few similarities to these classic vehicles

This is an X-Box Forza Screen shot of a Martini signed Rally Exige.

It shows one way of decorating an Exige. 

Here is an example of a Tarmac Rally Lotus Exige built by Lotus to celebrate their previous success in the Lotus Talbot (seen behind)

Lancia Stratos. Even shorter wheel base than the Exige.

This car is an Icon. A game changer.
