My First RC Car TL-01 Hopped up to the Max-SOLD
Second-NEO NR4 I like it I bought two for parts(SOLD)
Third is Pro3-- Did ot like it!!!!!
I noticed here in the Manila and other countries only a few like it, so it challenge me to keep it and RACE it!!!! And another fact is, how come HK and other after market companies are coming out with this and that for the Car, besides HARA is using it (with tons of hop-ups)
Out of the box it is not competitive, Pro3 is a car that likes to be hopped up!!! The flex is okay for tracks without tight turns but not so if its a high speed track. (but over at singapore, they said they race it with only a few modificatications and they love it there) (and that is why HPI came out with a KIT with all the Hop ups for the Pro3 its the Special Ed, I think)
And It took awhile for me to get my Pro3 to handle!!!!
I have spent almost an equivalent to 2 brand new X-rays T1 in hopped ups!!!
What i need now is the chassis of penguin and aluminum steering arms!!!!
Its about 1.560kgs in weight with batts, a bit heavy but I will make up for it in time when my driving skills improve!!!
All my friends have Yokes, TC3's, X-rays and Tamiya but I will stick with my Pro3--- hell I can't even go to sleep without looking and fondling my car hehehehehehe!!!!! Call it addiction!!!
I also have a TAMIYa TBevo as my back up car!
So to all the people who frown on the Pro3-- sorry I love my car!! And it will always boil down to Driving Skills!!!!
But now-I love it like Crazy!!!!!!
