I am selling my 18r (team associated 1/18th) and going to go w/ either of the two kits Xray or HPI. I love the 18th scale for various reasons. I like Xray products (have the X1 and race it in my club). I also like that Xray's M18 comes in a kit, I really hate RTR's ...but if the HPI is that much better maybe I could find a roller on eBay, take it apart and rebuild (to get my kit building fix on).

Your thoughts on the two kits?
thanks,

having owned both, I can say that the M18 is a significant improvement over the RS4. Back in the day I had a Ratzas chassis modification for my RS4, which created a chassis layout similar to the M18, but was still lacking n tuning abilities. The M18 has more adjustability than the RS4, and thus can be better adapted to different conditions.
