i bought a Hot bodies Tornado May last year. it cost me £230 GBP. the same shop had the HPI Rs4 evo and the 2 cars looked basically the exact same and the both came with the same stuff but the HPI was £270 GBP. as for value for money well oil filled shocks, 2 speed, .16 size engine, 3mm alu millled chassis, so basically what you find on most cars now a days but slightly cheaper. and performance wise they say the Rs4 that they had in the shop goes 44mph and the Savage 25 goes 38mph but yesterday i went out driving around with my mate who has a savage and my car although not fully tuned raced his car which i dont think was fully tuned either so it was kind of fair and i managed to beat him by a considerable distance so the performance is about the same maybe a little faster..steven.

IIRC, the HB Tornado and the RS4-3 are two COMPLETELY different cars. one's a shaftie, one is belt driven.
but, I say go with the Nitro TC3, whether you want a kit or an RTR.
