Hello,
Here is my newest project at it's completion. This is an HPI Racer2 Kit that I have owned since new 4 years ago. I have built it little by little with upgrades mostly from HPI and Hot Bodies Parts. Almost all of the chassis and suspension are aluminum and carbon fiber. The shocks are HPI Composite Threaded Shocks with Pro-Linear Springs. The Engine is a Novarossi 3 port .12 Rear Exhaust, sitting on HPI Lowered Engine mounts and 32mm Flywheel. I Hand Painted the Tribal Flames using Pactra Spray Cans in Metallic Red, Indy Silver, and Sprint White. The Flames were hand cut using 3m Fine Line tape. I am very proud of how my HPI kit has turned out, and it runs great! Thanks for looking at my entry, Mike Donovan Mesa, AZ |

This is my HPI nitro MT Racer. The body is a 280mm
Skyline Body. It has a Puzzle design throughout the whole body,
over 30+ hours. It has everything. However what makes this special
is I put two HPI SS engines onto this, Everything runs, FAST!
All the parts are still all yours, and I kept your design of removing
the radio tray with two clips. It sits on HPI V groove compound
tires with your 5 spoke rims.

| These are pictures of my first nitro car. I bought this Super Nitro when they first came out. Since then I have collected numerous other HPI cars. This RS4 has turned on the hobby to some of my friends and co-workers. They love the way the big scale looks. It still retains the original 15fe engine, which starts almost flawlessly every time. Its not the fastest, but it's so reliable it puts the fun factor through the roof. The only modifications I did to this car was the MIP pipe, two speed tranny, and added a carb with both high and low speed adjustments. I also made an exhaust (tail) pipe that exits by the rear bumper, made faux brake discs, and cut out the grill and glued in some screen to add cooling and give it some realisim. Keep up the good work HPI! |

| Hi HPI, My name is Thomas from Toronto, ON Canada. A friend purchased a Nitro RS4 Type SS kit back in September, and when I saw it, I was hooked. I had to have one so I bought a Nitro RS4 RTR-3 and have loved it ever since. Here are some pictures of my car which came with a Camaro SS body, but now has this Subaru WRC body. It's painted with metallic blue and has front LED headlights, Pirelli Rally tires and 10-spoke wheels. The car is otherwise mechanically stock for the time being while I practice my driving. Next season though, I will likely get a bit more powerful motor for racing. I am also attempting to create a rally "light bar" for the front of the car, which if I am successful, I will send pictures of. Thank you HPI for creating such a fun and easy to use Nitro radio control. |

| Hi HPI, I love the racer gallery that you guy's do. It is an awesome tool for the promotion of the sport. My name is Jason Hood from Eugene Oregon (GO DUCKS !!!!) I am a huge HPI fan, and I now have added a Super Nitro RS4 to my stable of HPI products. I is a very fast car and I love the way it handles. It has a Nova Rossi 12c for power and and all the carbon fiber mods there are. I also just got a MIP boost bottle kit for it. But my favorite thing about this car is all the bodies that you guy's offer for SNRS4, I hope there are more designs on the way. Here are two that I have done for my car, The awesome 350z body and the Toyota GT1. I also have the Corvette C5-R, Ford F-150 and the BMW v12 LMR. I would enter these also but I think I will wait for next time. Thanks again and HPI ROCKS. Always Racin Jason Jason Hood Eugene, OR |
