Off-Road Racers
I believe the tomcat was designed by Drew Bowler for competing in events such as Competitive Safaris (Comp Safaris) and Hill Rallies. There are of course other off-road vehicles built to race in these events. I can get some ideas from these off road racers for when I build my Tomcat even though my off-roader won't be used for racing. Drew Bowler also went on to design the Wildcat.
