"WELCOME MARC RHEINARD! (10/19/05)

Hot Bodies is proud to announce the addition of the world famous Marc Rheinard to our growing list of world class drivers! Marc has signed on to run our Nitro off-road vehicles as well as use the Atsushi Hara line of Twister 2.1 speed controllers! We are confident Marc will do great with our nitro off-road team.

Stay tuned for upcoming results and photographs of Marc Rheinard racing HB Nitro off-road vehicles!"

I wonder if he'll be driving a HB Tour'r soon?

I highly doubt he'll be driving a Cyclone. I thought I read somewhere that he has just resigned a long contract with Tamiya.

Yes you´re right. At the German forum there was a comment from Marc´s father about this so he´s just driving the Nitro off-road car for Hotbodies but not the Cyclone. He still is with Tamiya but he´s allowed running other brands cars when Tamiya doesn´t have a car in their range for certain classes. This is for 1:12 and for the Nitro off-road also now.

Hi Phil,

I’ve still not had a chance to run my Cyclone, it current set-up is kit. Being very used to my pro4 where droop is usually 4 at the front and 3 at the rear, I’m a bit suprised with the Cyclone kits setting of 7 front - 6 rear! Did you run it with these settings or did you change these?

Is there any news on HB releasing a ball diff set for the Cyclone yet? I sure hope they do release one as to buy all the bits separately it's about £70!

It is extremely light too.

Right, so these side body mounts are supposed to stop the rear upper bulkhead breaking, as the body will mount off the middle bulkhead instead of the shock tower on the upper bulkhead. Is this correct?
