Do you race it?
I'm assuming with all the goodies that you race? Don't have a RS4-3.
Current stable of R/C:
1) HPI Super Nitro /w Picco .15 SE & novarossi slide carb
2) Trinity Reflex n/t /w Picco .15 RE & novarossi slide carb
3) HPI Nitro2 RS4 .15FE /w Traxxas 6mm rotary carb non-pullstart
4) HPI Pro-3 /w P2K2 Stock motor, Car is mostly stock.
5) Trinity Reflex n/t /w RB .12SE slide carb (my Stepsons car)
6) Traxxas T-Maxx /w O.S. .15CVRX slide carb.
7) Tamiya TL01, mostly stock.
8) RC10GT Team Built / w O.S. .12 CV Hyper (Stepson's car)
The HPI Nitro2, T-Maxx and Tamiya TL01, all belong to my 7yr old son.

Since your local
Check out the Racing Forum and the RC Comp. thread.
I have posted the schedule for the rest of 2002.
I've kinda been boycoting Revelation since when they first canceled their Saturday sedan program. I don't like racing on the big layouts. I prefer a parkinglot size track better.

HPI Nitro RS4 3
I just saw that the HPI nitro rs4 3 is 209.99 RTR at ultimatehobbies.com. That price sounds like a steal, my question is is it worth it? does anyone run this car? this would be my first nitro so is it worth ir for a newbie?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Good price for a decent car

Definitely a great price. I seen quite a few out at the race tracks and they handle much better than the older cars. For bashing you just can't go wrong with an HPI. Ultimate Hobbies is a good place to shop also.

hpi rs4 3 ss bigblock
hello i was thinking of buying the wolfpack radicals converstion kit for my ss...i was wondering what big blocks will work in the car after i get it...cause im not sure what the crank type is in the ss to look for a bigblock..so any help would be great as i am allready looking at some engines...like will the ofna engines work,or the os 21,or even the hpi 21..and also is there one out there that i could use a pullstart on unstead of the starter box..

these cars dont really handle that bad if they are set up right..i just think it would be cool to have a big block because of the awesome tourqe you would have..and the ability to rocket out of turns..the big blocks i have seen run are just amazing...and i dont race yet so i would just be using the big block to play around with
