It will be interesting to see what type of solution that HPI has developed. Regardless of their efforts, I doubt it will be a one size fits all classes design. Hopefully it will come with all the necessary performance parts in the kit and be a reasonable price.
I was disappointed with the HPI F10 car with the cost of the upgrade parts. When you factored in the cost to make that car competitive with other brands, it just made more sense to buy the other brands.
