While the kit is bad ass, the RTR version is great and offers the same amount of tuning, you guys will love them.

Damn that is a nice 2wd SC... I had no plans on getting a Blitz but I think this changed my mind. My SC10 might be sidelined.

Nice work Eric, you listened to what everyone wanted and delivered!

+1000 on that^^^

And you guys thought the 4x4 was a game changer ? Freaking white is awesome if it stays clean.

I'm curious though. Will dyeing the parts make them softer, defeating the purpose of the stiffer composite?

called Travis at HPI today, asked him when the ese was going to be released, and he said "It will be coming out in April". So to everyone like me who just bought a rtr, I think of it this way, as soon as my chassis parts start wearing out and needing re builds etc. Then the ESE will be out and I'll build my new chassis, Sounds like a plan.
