Joshua Kameyer from Los Angeles, CA. I'm 28 and
ran electric off-road in my teens, but the thrill of R/C never
left me, and neither did my old cars which all still run! This
here is an HPI Nitro RS4 3 Type SS, my first Nitro car, with the
HPI Lotus Elise 200mm body. I used Pactra Flourescent Orange and
backed it with Pactra Indy Silver. All the pics were shot with
my Canon Powershot S200 Digital Elph camera and taken with my
Mac through remote capture. The lighting was done with gels over
a halogen above and an incandescent practical below a glass surface.
The pic with the car driving is a composite of a performance road
I shot up at Boyle Ranch in Simi Valley, and the SS altered in
Photoshop 7.0. The neon looking car was also created in Photoshop
7.0.
Anyway, thanks HPI for a fun car and a community of racers
to reignite my R/C excitement.

Week Three, April 2003

Here's some pictures of my NMT with a new HPI Silverado Body.
I've made limited upgrades from the stock offering, they include:
HPI 15SS engine, 11 tooth clutch bell, differential springs,
racer fuel tank, Stiffer shocks (blue), motor saver air filter
w/mud cap, and for the track, I have a set of Bow-ties mounted
on HPI MT Super Star Truck Wheels. I mainly bash around the
backyard, local golf courses, etc., but I hope to start racing
more often. I love the versatility of the NMT. It let's me bash
with the best of 'em, but I can still give 'em a run on the
race day.
Keep putting out great products and thanks for all of your
excellent customer support.
Thank you.
