HPI are back with another re-run of this classic. I missed out last time and now have bought two of these from Hobbies Direct. The car is absolutely flawless, massive amounts of power for a scale RC. It behaves like the real thing, Meant for those who are serious about driving and not jumping ramps, This beast will not disappoint whatsoever. This animal needs to be driven hard and fast across tarmac, mud, clay or any surface you throw at it. A must have in any RC Drivers garage for sure. I rarely rate an RC 5 stars but this is an exceptional true to scale weapon. Thanks Hobbies Direct, Awesome service.
