Oh, well.
I guess I'll be getting that Xray then.
But I will put HPI stickers all over it and Lie when people ask what it is.
I'm really looking forward to having my pro4 and a belt. I was going to get the 415 but I have never owned an xray so I thought of giving it a chance.
however, I'm still holding out to hear that Karn was hired to secretly develope a new car for hpi!!! ahhh, one can dream.
I too am contimplating on getting the new Xray. and looked forward to a HPI shaft and belt cars.... I think they will... just a matter of time before HPI releases a competative belt car. We'll probably see more prototype in the future like we did before the Pro4 was ever released. If released...the belt car will definately be fast out of the box as with the pro4.
if you've never owned a Xray car... you'll be amazed by quality and workmanship that goes into each car. and you can pass it off as an HPI car by having all the silver parts colored to purple...
Since your in the Bay area...There's an anodizer in Newark that will do it...fairly inexpensively.....
