The nitro RCs are so expensive to up keep and maintenance can become a headache, imo anyways. I have two nitros and they get very expensive when you start trying to modify them. A fun hobby but makes me touchy about crashing $300+ worth of equipment that I barely run the things anymore. If the body will fit my HPI RTR then ima pick up one to match my FRS to bring around to meets maybe.

I'll probably just buy the body and put it on one of the cars I already have.

I like the rims. I think I'll get these rims for street as 18" as I don't like any of the stock 18" rims.

I think its one of the drift chassis but I am not sure. I saw it at the release event in LA.

HPI was at Formula Drift last weekend. One of the First 86ers (I don't recall who) talked to them, and they hinted that Scion might be sending us each one.

I'm 100% sure it will be AWD.

RC cars require AWD to drift properly. The shrunken down size and weight of RC means it doesn't behave the same as real life cars.
