The Proceed is the
first 1/8 scale racing kit from HPI Racing. For serious racers looking
for the ultimate in speed and tuning capability, look no further! This
is the kit to have.
Capable of 0-60 in
less than 3 seconds on the way to a top speed in excess of 70 mph, the
Proceed is not for the faint of heart! This is a kit for the truly hard-core
racer who wants to experience the most demanding on-road R/C racing experience.
With A final races routinely an hour long at most club events, 1/8 scale
on-road racing is a very rigorous and exacting hobby!

 These
are pictures of the production version of the new HPI Proceed, our car
that will compete against the likes of the Serpent Vector, Picco Integra
and Mugen Avance/MRX cars! The 1/8th scale racing class has long been
considered the "Formula 1 of R/C racing", and with cars like
the Proceed, it's very easy to see why! This is a very serious racing
car, easily capable of speeds in excess of 70mph.
 The
Proceed features a 5mm thick 7075S aluminum chassis, 2.5mm thick woven
graphite radio deck (this is optional on other 1/8 scale cars), quick-change
front and rear wheels, double wishbone suspension, dual kingpin pivot
balls for the front and rear uprights, adjustable front swaybar, thick
steel brake disk with fiber disk pads, and threaded shock bodies for quick
ride height adjustment.
