My name is Jack Tsai. I live out in Philadephia,
PA. This Skyline GT-R body sits on a rs4-3 RTR car. Completely
Stock except with the two speed. Fast and very easily fixable!
Sits on Hotworks wheels, with Medium foams, and hard foams wrapped
with X factor HPI tires.

This Super Nitro was finished with inspiration
from the full size #53(red banner) Mobil1 GT Viper. Being an aspiring
autocross racer, I've found that racing model cars can be as much,
and more, addicting than hopping up the real cars. Since the photos,
the Super RS4 has received a full race suspension so I can play
with handling and power mods are under construction. The aluminum
front air splitter and rear winglets show what I do with the scrap
aluminum from working on small aircraft.
Thank you HPI for the best kits, with the best bodies, and greatest aftermarket! Christian Kiesz Sacramento, CA |

Hello my name is Jerome and i am from vallejo. In vallejo there is a local hobbyshop that has many skilled drivers(mostly nitro drivers and micro dragster! and one micro drifter) one of these drivers, named Jericho, has raced at the nitro nationals at socal in revelation raceway. He placed 1st in the M-Main, but luckily, he entered his hand painted Yu Gi Oh body and boy does it look great! He asked me to post this body up in HPI's racer gallery and here it is! The Yu Gi OH face was hand painted and some airbrush, also the background and the wording "It's Time To Duel" is all airbrushed! in the concours challege at the Nationals(Revelation Raceway), he placed 2nd in the concours challenge with this body and he has never ran this body on any car, it will stay as a shelf queen forever! And i assure u guys that the Yu Gi Oh on the front of the body is not a sticker! I kid you not! this is no lie that the character on the front is all handpainted and airbrushed! so is the rest of the car is airbrushed! You may see this car in the next month's issue of rcca or on december issue of rcca. Once the issue of rcca comes out with the results from the nitro nationals, come look for the M-Main and the name Jericho on there, also look for the concours challenge and this body will show up as 2nd place! And don't forget if your at Vallejo stop by at Vallejo R/C where you may find this body and more Team VRC (Vallejo R/C) website: www.Vallejonitrorc.com payce! |

| I have a super nitro and I love it. It's a very fast car with a two speed tranny and a Scotts' exhaust system. HPI has done a great job with the engineering of the car and it shows. Keep up the great work and I will forward to your next projects. From Seattle, WA Kenny Huie |  |
