Real World Racer : VW Passat B6 Pikes Peak
The attachment is just a quick mock-about of the basic shape i did last night, features conversion to a 3 door and raised wheel arches. Going to sketch a body-kit (Celica Pikes Peak style maybe) tomorrow if i remember, so hopefully more updates tomorrow!
Btw, any pics & links on Pikes Peak are appreciated

It looks good, but maybe it's just a bit shorter than the regular wagon.
Keep us updated!

I know it looks like shorter, but the mad bodykit and 3 door conversion make it look a lot shorter. On that note, the door maybe far too long which makes it look even shorter.. I did trace the mask, lights & windows through my screen so it actually should be the lenght of the original.. but that a concept sketch anyway
Thanks!

I'm sure you'll pay attention to have an accurate length for the 3D model, so I'm really not worried

Grr
Started on the spline cage, still refining and thinking about the shapes and bodykit. Thinking about what tom said, the 3 door conversion takes alot from the passat's characteristics and makes it look shorter. Also thinking about the interior and chassis/frame etc, maybe tubular mixed with the passat's own and a big mid-engine there, possibly audi V12 TDI or the like and steering in the middle (?)
