That's one of "Donks" 1/10 bodies on a touring car chassis?

Exactly.

I used a 4wd tamiya tl01 because that's what I had. The rear suspension arms are flipped over to get a longer wheelbase, and I had to make new shock mounts. The tl01 is the right width. Any other touring car chassis would be better to lengthen, but I know this one is pretty tough. I'll have to adjust my driving style- I know that this body won't handle what Lexan will take.
