Here's the thing: The picture is that of the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , which has the ability to beat one Marc Marquez on his Honda MotoGP bike (though not really), as !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! attests.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

The whole thing has 3.5 hp, but strap it's Traxxas/Castle brushless-electric setup to a shell that weighs lesser than Stef's bunny's torso and the thing flies like it's a fighter jet. Just listen to it whip by its operators in these clips !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! and !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .

The XO-1 is good and all, but the exterior leaves much to be desired. I mean, it looks the part, but looks like any other hypercar.

Which made me think: What car can best be represented in 1:7 scale and powered with ludicrous amounts of electrons through the XO-1's engine?

I have two choices: The Mercedes CLR, because Flying Silver Arrow, that's why. But that's trolling.

A proper answer would be this.

The dark blue car you're seeing is the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , and it's Slovakian. It also rocks hard from its looks, even though it makes a Toyota FT-1 reference up front. And I mean it.

I think this is a more deserving body-style as a replacement for the XO-1's stock body, but I think you can ace me.

In Indonesia, there's an RC maker who makes normal cars you see on the road, called rastar. Their line-up is as good as you imagine, they has Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, and Acura MDX.

That's my weapon. Rastar Camry/Alphard. Ultimate sleeper ftw!

Awesome looking thing, though.
