Emaxx-Revo-Losi 1/5 AWD On-Road racer

What i planned on buying

FG Racing Audi Body
Proline Roadrage tires
Axial Oversized wheels

I cant say I think much of proline road rages, I bought a set for my buggy and to steal Gee's phrase it was like an elephant on stilts with them fitted, There very floppy and easily the worst on-road tyres I've used.

I love them on my 1/10 cars, up to 45mph.
Not sure about the 5" and 50+ mph
?

What do you think ?
Jut a mock up, I may make my own rockers so dont pay to much attention to angles.
Trying to be different here:
Should I lay the suspension on top like F-1 or stand up like first pics ?

Preparing for a new low body.
The front turned out just ok, it was a bit tricky getting around the steering. I'll probably make a nicer one later. The rear one took a few hours machining in my drill press but it came out great.

The new body I plan on making. In researching forming Polycarbonate it looks like money and time wise I will make a PVC body first.

Here's what I am aiming for
