BTW, Hara earned his stripes at Yokomo (won the WC with them), and I don't think he'll be going back there any time soon!
Hi, Frank.
The Hpi Challenge just hasn't been the same without you. Please come back!
Regarding the pro 4: We just want Hpi to continue the platform in the Pro 5 with some new advancements; such as aluminum bulkheads (no more stripped out carbon graphite) and easier access to the diffs. Let Hotbodies have the belt car. I don't see why
both entities can't produce high end race cars? Also, It would be nice to see a new, high end, nitro sedan to compete with kyosho, Mugen and Serpent.
