If this thing turns out like the E10 which was all show and no go I wont be impressed..

I truely hope that this Chassis is the worthy sucessor to the HPI Sprint 2....

I have seen some pics of this car on another forum, looks like some quality stuff. Drive Train is pretty interesting and the chassis looks very well balanced. Lots of orange aluminum as well…better than purple I guess. [sm=49_49.gif]

if it comes like this it'll be real nice i guess, still i would get a regular 4wd touring which you can also use for racing

dude this thing will be a hit if its a solid chassis. just like u dont need high end cars, people are still running full cf cyclones, yokomo bds, sds, ssgs, lcgs, and all that stuff. they will probably end up having a sport version of this car also like the cyclone s.

yeah, i would imgine it is going to e ridculosly over priced just like the D4. i was wondering how long it would take before one of the companies made a street car with that chassis layout.

yea probably. but where i'm from you don't need a 4, 5 or 600 dollar chassis in order to drift well.

Of course people will buy this chassis regardless. I just hope people don't buy it with the "i'll be faster if i get a 100 dollar motor" line of thought.

Under $400 for a D4 is a great price.

This car is NOT a high-end carpet car. This car was made like this because people appreciate high quality materials. You can drift your current car without worries.
