We should start a criteria to judge the battle mobiles here. I

So i’ve been lurking here. I was just thinking it would be fun to have judging criteria for all of these cars. They are all super cool. But it would be fun to just sort of label them. There is no contest. Just fun. the criteria could be like this:
all on a 1-10 scale 10 being perfection
Lift: how high the vehicle is
Gap: how much gap between the wheel and fender
Battle: on a scale of 1 to 10, one being your average commute to work. 10 being zombie apocalypse survivor.
Rally: perceived ability for navigating off-road at high-speed
Stank: power levels
Style: does it look cool?
i’ll offer myself as tribute, the car above is mine.
Lift: 3/10
Gap: 5/10
Battle: 1/10
Rally: 5/10
Stank: 5/10
Style: 6/10
rate me!

Needs the subaru wing, yellow subaru graphics, etc, to be considered a real subaru.

Agreed.
This looks about as "battlecar" as my Grandma's Subi.

I vote we go back to safari cars. Battle is so fucking stupid.

Function/form always for me, so a WRX is gonna get a decent score even tho I think the new ones aren't that pretty. My suggestion for categories would be: crawl ability, high speed ability, looks the part, style, and power. I'd give you (in that order) 3, 7, 3, 2, 5. A good start, but Crosstrek control arms and lift kit would help a lot, as would bigger tires and steel bumpers.
I wonder if the Crosstrek bilstein b8 dampers would fit the WRX?

They would but you need to use the wrx top hats as the bolt pattern is larger. Or forester ones for an extra inch and more weight handling.

It is lifted. That ain’t stock.
BoostedFPV@reddit
No I get that. But thats like a baby lift. No offense. Im rollin 30's.
MassCrassAss@reddit (OP)
Yes, and I do rallycross, so I don’t lift that high. I still need a low CG.
BoostedFPV@reddit
Oh for sure. That changes my statement a bit.
MassCrassAss@reddit (OP)
Possibly. It has forester shocks and springs under it now. And 1” taller tires.

The criteria is, until you are on WASTELAND LEVEL, you are found lacking.

Ricktor_67@reddit
Looks stock to me.
MassCrassAss@reddit (OP)
It’s got a forester lift under it and 1” larger tires.
