Hey Ajo. This is an identical replica of the FS Racing Buggy/Truck. I know cause I have one. Absolutely identical. They may look great but are not very sturdy. Good for regular use but cannot stand a chance if you try and bash one of these as they are very very heavy.

Iceman, are you getting this??

Looks very very similar to FS Racing buggies and from some angles to MCD also.

HPI's new 1/8 scale buggy is based on Hot Bodies D8 4wd buggy.

Providing all the power of the Vorza Flux HP is an HPI Flux brushless system, consisting of the Tork 2200 motor & Blur speedo - both wholly impressive in their own right, but together they form an unstoppable power force!

Controlling the Tork 2200 is the Flux Blur speedo, the most powerful brushless speed controller we could find. With the ability to handle twin 3S LiPo batteries (that's a total of 6S LiPo power!) it can deal with anything the Tork 2200 motor can dish out! 6mm bullet connectors secure the motor wires for loss-free connection to the 12-gauge wires, and to connect to each battery pack attached real Dean's connectors for zero power loss and total efficiency. Topping off the versatility of the Flux Blur speedo (literally) is an integrated cooling fan, which allows the speedo to operate at its ideal temperature.

Its seems this is going to be superfast buggy from HPI stable.

Hey guys. This is my Wheely King with a Hummer H2 body I painted using Pactra ready to spray cans.

I've attached a mock bumper in front to give it that full body look. The original chassis has been reversed to put battery weight in the front. Alluminium suspension links for that stable articulation and full time 4wd using differential lockers.

Cheers.

Hey guys I just got news that there is a new RC Dirt Track coming up at Chennai. Its on ECR somewhere near Fishermans cove. I am really excited that Chennai is catching up with the RC Car scene. Heard that it will be ready in a weeks time.

Hey guys this would be good news for all the RC maniacs at Chennai. I heard that there is a new dirt track coming up on ECR near Fishermans Cove. Chennai seems to be catching up with the RC culture. Waiting to get updates on the track. So all those RC maniacs out there, lets get together n RACE.

How much does it cost?.. Is there any dealer in Chennai??

mail4ajo · 26th September 2009, 20:59

Its raining RC car tracks in Chennai, another one at Mayajaal complex, both onroad and offroad. Setup by a person called Sundar who earlier planned to start ATV trails.

He invited me to have a look. I am excited as I have 2 tracks to visit tomorrow, Raceway 112 and the one at Mayajaal.

This is the 3rd track to start. I will kick myself if I dont learn to drive properly now.

mail4ajo · 28th September 2009, 18:38

I think we have overtaken the country in having the most number rc tracks.

We have not one or two but three and one more coming soon.

Heres some action from Raceway 112 opening:

majorpayne · 28th September 2009, 21:49
