Introducing the HPI E10 Gran Turismo! With
realistic scale looks, you will be amazed at the intricate
detailing on this special edition E10 car! The E10 is the perfect
RTR (Ready To Run) car for the new or casual RC car hobbyist, and
its detailed scale looks will impress anyone who sees it in action,
while its ease of use, durability, handling and performance make it
easy for the E10 Gran Turismo owner to impress on the street as
well! The E10 Gran Turismo is a fully-detailed, officially licensed
replica of the iconic race car symbol from the Gran Turismo racing
video game available on the Sony Playstation video game console
series. The E10 GT features a fully Ready-To-Run (RTR) 4WD chassis
fitted with an authentic Ford GT LM spec II bodyshell with official
Gran Turismo and Sony graphics. It's right out of Gran Turismo!
This is one amazing car, without the amazing price tag! Imagine
having this one-of-a-kind authentic racing replica sitting on your
shelf, ready to take for a spin whenever you please! You will truly
feel closer to the game and a part of history as you drive this
model in your driveway or local RC race track!
The E10 is a four-wheel drive,
factory-assembled, fully prepared 1/10th scale street car from the
same world-renowned HPI design team that is famous for user
friendliness, racer appeal and usability. HPI produces some of the
world's most famous and iconic radio-control model cars, such as
the Savage nitro-powered monster truck series and the Baja 1/5th
scale petrol-powered buggy and truck series! When it comes to RC,
HPI is the leader!
Fully assembled, pre-painted and ready to
go right out of the box, the E10 Gran Turismo is equally at home on
the shelf as it is on the street! Don't be afraid to drive the E10
hard, it can take the punishment of real racing!
Amazing scale looks, extreme attention to
detail and officially licensed racing decals combine to give you a
unique racing model car that allows you to experience the thrill of
circuit racing combined with the ultimate joy of RC car ownership!
What scale model collector hasn't wished they could actually drive
their models around - well, now you can and it's easier than
ever!
The Ford GT bodyshell supplied with the E10 Gran Turismo is
pre-painted in the authentic white sheen that identifies it as the
car from the Gran Turismo promotional material. Every curve and
line of the full-size car is present in this scaled-down one-tenth
size representation, down to the vents, scoops and wheel openings.
Applied carefully to the outside of the bodyshell are fully
licensed sponsor decals for a totally really look that will truly
impress your friends!
The E10 Gran Turismo rolls on the exact same 5-spoke 'mag' type
wheels that the real version uses, wrapped with real treaded rubber
tyres that provide authentic scale looks. Once you're driving the
car, you'll find the tyres provide astounding grip as well! Looking
inside the wheels, you will see brake discs that rotate with the
wheel, and separate brake calipers that stay in place – details
not included on any other RTR car! This final touch helps set the
E10 apart from all the other contenders! If these wheels aren't to
your taste, or if you just fancy standing out from the croud, then
you'll be pleased to know that all other HPI 12mm hex touring car
wheels will bolt straight on in their place.
The E10 takes performance cues from
previous HPI championship-winning cars and durable design elements
and bring them all together for a total package that is fun to
drive, tough and featuring great performance!
The E10 uses a tough shaft drivetrain to put the power to all four
wheels, giving it permanent four-wheel drive! Sealed motor gears
spin the centre shaft and the front and rear differentials, which
give the E10 great cornering ability. With full-time 4WD, you can
tackle just about anything the road can throw at you!
The strong tub shape helps keep rocks and other debris out of the
chassis, keeping the car cleaner for easy maintenance. The
underside of the chassis is fully countersunk, which means it’s
completely flat for driving over smooth or rough tarmac, and no
screws stick out to catch on any debris that might be on your
driving surface.
The lightweight drivetrain features
oversized driveshafts and strong plastic parts to make it
long-lasting and efficient. The motor is mounted on a unique cam
motor mount that is marked for easy gear mesh alignment. A large
cover protects the spur gear, and a snap-on cover keeps rocks away
from the pinion and spur gear. The central driveshaft has
longitudinal ribs to prevent excess flex, and is lightweight to
provide maximum acceleration. The central driveshaft turns the
front and rear sealed gear differentials. From the diffs, oversize
outdrives spin thick dogbones to each wheel, providing power and
grip for maximum four-wheel drive action!

The suspension parts (wishbones, shock
towers, uprights and hubs) are all made from thick, long-wearing
durable plastic so you don’t have to worry about making a few
mistakes from time to time. A tough servo saver does the vital task
of keeping the servo’s internal gears intact, and thick steering
arms connect the servo to the front steering knuckles to protect
the many moving parts of the steering system. An extra-wide, tough
foam front bumper protects the car's front end and bodyshell during
crashes and impacts. Protecting the rear of the car is a cool
venturi-style bumper that looks like it came right off a GT racing
car!

All HPI RTR kits feature easy-to-use radio gear and electronics,
and the E10 cars are no different. Right out of the box you will
get great performance and superb reliability from HPI electronics!
Every HPI E10 car is equipped with a narrowband high frequency dual
channel AM pistol grip radio. The realistic steering wheel feel of
this type of radio encourages the RC beginner to think of the E10
as a real car driving around a race course, and the feel of pulling
back on the throttle trigger is just like stomping on the
accelerator of a real car! The HPI TF-1 radio transmitter features
interchangeable frequency crystals, a retractable aerial, easy
access to radio adjustments and simple battery replacement. The
transmitter is a compact size to make it easy for you to get
straight to driving your car. The comfortable pistol-shape
controller fits easily in the hand and the steering wheel
replicates the control of the real thing. The E10 features standard
RC components, including a reversing speed controller to allow you
to back out of any trouble you might get into, plus a strong
standard battery with wall charger. Pick up an extra battery from
your local model shop or a fast battery charger for even more run
time with your E10 Gran Turismo! If you want more speed it's easy
to bolt in a faster motor - the stock speed controller can take
faster tuned stock motors from 21 or higher turns for a noticeable
boost in top speed.
With famous HPI quality and support, plus proven HPI
electronics, you will get a fantastic RTR value from the E10. Spare
parts and replacements will be easily available through the HPI
distribution network for years to come – this is no toy store
car! Every piece of the car is replaceable, and ordering any spares
can be done through your local model shop.
As with all HPI cars and trucks, you get a full, in depth
instruction manual with step by step instructions that allow you to
easily disassemble and reassemble your car for maintenance and easy
servicing.
As with all E10s, there is great range of option parts
available to allow you to customise, strengthen and increase the
performance of you E10 GT. The range of options for the E10 is
always increasing as the HPI R&D team churn out new and improved
stuff.
