HPI Super RS4 Kit | Pros/Cons? Good buy? Good for Drifting?

[mike@af]

I have been looking into getting a new car since mine is so outdated. I cant find any replacement, or option parts for it. Since my B-Day is coming up soon, and its my 16th I thought I'd ask for a new RC. I was think the HPI Super RS4.

HPI Super RS4

Would you reccomend it? Would it be a good car for drifting? What are the pros and cons of the kit?

i havent heard anything about this kit, but im sure its a good one because hpi generally makes good products. as for the drifting, it would be fine because it is 4wd, you should get a 27turn motor like the trinity P2K2 if you want to drift. You should also make a set of pvc tires for it and then it should be driftin great.

Thanks for the info. I'll be making some PVC tires for it. I have an 18 Turn 350 motor thats pretty damn fast, I'll probably use that for now. The Super RS4 is basically the RS4 on steroids. its 20% larger than most 1/10.

What about replacement parts? Are they fairly easy to come by?
