this is the team chevron body in case she looks for it.. be careful there is a 08 and 09 version (both look great !!)
you might want to pick up also the tech racing f1-f108 ... awesome car if you want an alternative to the f103-104pro-new HPI

The kit or the bodies? The kit is 2-4 months away, I think.

Talking The Kit!!!

I meant the kit! If it's two months I may as well pick up an HPI Cup car to pass the time!

No pics with leccy bits yet, the kit page is just a preview for now. I'll be painting up something for a video shoot though, that should be fun

There's a few things in the works but the stock of 'new secret stuff' is running low

The HPI EU page has a few more pictures and English text (had to update the p/n): http://www.hpieurope.com/kit-info.ph...102852&lang=en

Have you talked to Rally Steve lately? I found him on Facebook but he hasn't replied to me yet

I'd love to, believe me! I just don't have the cash or spare holiday time I have found RallySteve and even DKOV on Facebook, DKOV invited me for a ride in his car for the Oregon Trail rally thing this weekend...

It would be great if there were a way to fit a 1S lipo in this car. I love the car but really have no desire to go back to fiddling with nimh cells. I can't understand why they would come out with a completely new car in 2009 and design it around sub-C cells...

Price would be one guess. Then again this car may have been in development for a while except for the period when the memo about the ball diff was lost to the shedder.. I've heard rumors for 2 years about the F104 and those small LiPo's were only a dream then. I hope this thing is cheap, if it caught fire the only thing that would be left would be the axles. Still though I like it. Another option for the starting line.
