When we got our HPI Racing Blitz truck in the standard orange, we thought it was one of the best stock paint jobs we had ever seen on a RTR vehicle! The flat black pain, the bright orange, it just looked amazing. Now HPI has introduced the ATTK-10 bodies splashed with “Art Series” paint and graphics! Check [...]

I’m not 100% sure how much of this is actual spy video, or if it’s just a first look promo video from Schumacher Racing, but it’s some footage from a rc track in the UK of the Schumacher 2wd Cougar SV. The buggy looks pretty quick cruising around the crazy carpeted off road track.Check the official Schumacher Racing site [...]
I have been seeing more and more light sets show up at bashes and at the track, and it looks like RPM is riding that wave. They now have a Narrow Roof-Mounted Light Bar. They had a pretty cool 6 canister light bar previously, but it didn’t fit all vehicles. Their new narrow version [...]
