Howdy to the good folks at HPI racing,

I am a 27 year old RC hobbiest who has been building kits of all sorts since I was 11. This is my latest fun creation. I loved the new HPI Bronco body and wanted a very scale looking chassis for it. I used HPI stock car wheels for the convincing rock crawler wheels with the stock Hummer tires. An old Clod Buster bumper and roll bar parts mounted to a home built blackend aluminum skid bumper, and of course the wonderful 73 Bronco Body to top it all off. I used Pactra Comp Orange, white, and outlaw black all painted carefully by hand with a high quality brush.

Hello HPI!

Inclosed are some pictures of my Murcielago Super EP. This car is new in Europe and soon there will be official races for this 'Super Size' class. I will be running with a 17T Challenge motor, LRP-HPI Quantum speed controller and a Futaba Megatech system.

The paint job is one of the most challenging I've done and it was great fun to do! Those pre-cut decals are great!

Thanks HPI for the great products!

Hi,

Here is a few pics of my Modified HPI nitro RS4-2. I converted it to a pro-stock dragster.I narrowed the car by using the nitro mini suspension and rear dogbones.I removed the upper deck and all of the front drive components.I mounted the servos to the chasis by modifing parts off of the upper deck.The rear differential has been locked for positive traction.

It has the RS4-2 HD chasis,graphite Y-brace,HPI 2 speed and Picco .12 engine. Rear tires are associated on road truck tires modified to fit the HPI axle pins. Front tires and wheels are HPI 24mm. The body is HPI Saleen Mustang painted black with graphite flames. Also here is a pic of my .21 monster truck with the HPI Bronco body.The body is actually purple but shows up blue in the pic.

Thanks Roy Graham Jr

I painted the Camaro Racing Red and hand painted the graphics on the doors and hood. I spent about 7 hours on on bodies from start to finish. I also recently order another new Rx-7 and intend to paint it as the one from "The Fast and The Furious." I am really impressed with the new RX-7. Keep up the great work i love your guys products.

HPI,

This is my first Savage. What a truck! I have put it to the test and I can tell you it is the toughest RC vehicle on the market right out of the box! I have not upgraded anything on this truck except the wheels and tires, and I just painted the body. This is the first body I have painted myself in years, so I'm proud of the way it turned out. It's time to get it out and get dirty! You won't want pictures of it when I get done...

Thanks for building a great truck!!

Hello, my name is Wilson from Minnesota. This is my new Hpi Celica. From a simple book that HPI give it to me when I bought my very first R/C car, I learn how to build my next car using most of the stuff that made of aluminum and other stuff to make this car looks cool and of course can run fast. Using the HPI 12R RC Evo II, I hope that my car will give me a better performance than my first car. Thanks to HPI for providing good information how to build the car. Hopefully all of the HPI fans will enjoy the pictures that I provided.

Thanks,
Wilson
