Well guys, I have recently been working on a used RS4 2 which I purchased as basically a stock roller from Parker (HPI Savage 25). I purchased a few hop ups like belt tensioner and so on. A few things to remove some of the slop in the steering. I purchased a O.S. .12TZ engine and Team Orion .12 Pipe and HPI Sub'e Race Impreza body along with much much more. The car was converted to a 2 speed before I received it. I am still planning on upgrading it some more. I'm have purchased adjustable alum. tire rids which haven't arrived yet. This thing screams i'm guessing around 60ish. I have roughly 3/8 of a Gallon threw it which is why it is kind of dirty and a few scratches on the lid. Anyhow this is what it looks like.

So far its been just run in the street in front of my house. I hope to next year maybe get some more people and set up a track at the parking lot at my work.
 
That's a sweet looking ride Jason!!! Looks like it wold be alot of fun. I'd have something like that but I have nothing but gravel around me for roads.
 
I loved my rs4 nitro of course like most of my project its in pieces lol. I hope to have pics for it in the upcoming months. as I intend on selling it

I want a touring car so bad but my road sucks, it's basicly a dirt road the pavement so bad. Nice car.
 
i've actually heard with the right engine those things are insane.. looks nice larsenracing
 
Ya Pure the .18tz would be sick in it, however the .12 does a great job. I got a good feeling it runs a top speed in the upper 50's. I raced my brothers 3.3 Jato and kept up very well. The .18 would pull it to speed much better though.

As far as foam tires I have a few sets they just weir out very fast on the road in front of my house.
 
Any updates on this car larsen?

I think I am going to start working on the other one I have and get it going....
 
great car, I have the Orignal hpi rs4 in running condition and with orignal radio system just needs a body.
