Hey guys looks like Hara took 2nd place in Cleveland, pretty impressive for its first time at a major carpet race. Can't wait to try this puppy out.

Hara and his Pro 4 were most impressive. He is an absolute amazing driver. Like nothing I have ever seen.

I had the new car in my hands a number of times and it is good. I spoke with the designer and they working rapidly for a release..

Looking at the updates on the HPI website it looks like they are using set screws to hold the suspension pins in. Does anybody know if there are going to be pins available with e-clip grooves as the set screw system has been used on other cars and is suseptable to stripping over time and pins falling out or work their way out. Car looks fantastic though!!!
