Thumbs up HPI RC Scion FRS 2012

As posted on Speedhunters site:

Quote:
I know a lot of you guys out there have been saving up to buy the Scion FR-S/Toyota 86 when it goes on sale next year. Well, here's an FR-S that should just about anyone should be able to afford.
This is the FR-S radio control car that's being done as collaboration between HPI Racing and Scion, to be released in 2012.

Saw this on Scion's FB page earlier today. HPI made some great cars back when I used to race. It's been a while, but I hear their quality is still top notch.

Because of the drift crowd, I think it would be electric. I like gas powered for the build factor.

I've been waiting for this. I already have a gas HPI rc, hopefully this wont be another 4wd "drift" rc car. If that's the case I might just buy the shell.



Jack already has one! lol
