    Send it!! lol
    I just bought an HPI RS4 911 Porsche, shaft driven with fuchs offset rims on slick tires.. I love it!
    It “was” a shelf queen..
    I’m going to try and squeeze a HobbyWing fusion 2300kv in there so I can shoot some video’s without wrecking it.

    This thing is sweet. I have a RS4 Pro I built when I was in high school. Never put any electronics in it. Still looks brand new.

    I had a Rooster reversible and a T4. Woohoo! Big time! One of the benefits of having a part-time job at a hobby shop. Colpar all day swing shift at Stapleton airport swing shift. I was the guy who painted the Golden Tail on the Proud Bird, and fixed your squeaky seatbacks in the cabin 😆
    Fix the the old car.🤪

    If you're looking for something to polish the plastic shell, try polywatch or any brand of "plastic watch crystal polish" to buff out the scratches.
    I tired it on the windows of an old lexan body and it worked so well I ended up using it on the whole body lol.
    Super jealous right now, I wanted one of these back in the day so bad but I just never had the money. I think you should restore it and turn it into drifter. 👍👍

    1996, damn! When did I get old?😟😆
    Getting it running would be good but how delicate is the body after all the years?.

    Super cool ride!! I would liked to seen it with those wheels and tires put in there. But as far as the car goes i would definitely like to see it again real soon with a hot motor and some new shoes tearing up the asphalt.😂 but keep the videos coming

    Yard sold all my old HPI , awesome video though of a flashback, although with hpi's new owners I bet this rig gets re released lol.

    I still have my Hpi RS4 rally and still use it from time to time only because parts are getting hard to find for it

    I love this vintage content man! Unfortunately I was out of RC during the heydays of HPI. I just had some fun driving my TA02 brushless with Subaru Brat lexan body on it and rally tires. I would like you to make this into a runner!
