that looks hot man...when i was 15 i had an HPI Nitro RS4 buggy...then i sold that and got an electric Micro RS4....ever since then i've preferred electric....i really want a 1/10 electric car now....those electric TC3's are real sweet...

i remember at the meet in Nashville one of the guys had a gold 4dr accord body on a 1/10th scale car.....it looked hot...

you own a store... FIND ME THE ACCORD COUPE!!!!! lol

Then, before you tell mikey, PM me and i will pay for it and take it off your hands.


Pretty sweet though, i've been meaning to buy another body. I will probably put headlights and taillights on my next one, possibly go as far as functional brake lights.

Nitro drifting is fun. That's basically all i do with mine when i get a chance to use it. I have the same tires and wheels as you have actually for my rs4.

Chido will appreciate this one.

Nitro TC3 gas powered rc car.

I bought a mustang body, and figured i would make the cop car from transformers..


Now i need to go to a toy store and by a cop car for the lights, crashbar and everything.. Going to get them functional and everything

Much appreciated....project looks awesome man. Next meet we all need to bring the RC's and race and do a mini show. I got a couple of old bodies that i haven't finished yet. I even started a 6th gen sedan in Black Currant....hahaha BTW, HPI makes the best 6th gen sedan body. A while ago i started a mold for a coupe but never finished it.....I'll see if i can find pics of it.

Here's pics of the black currant body that goes on my nitro:
