Leaving HPI/HB
 
Hi All,
Well after 7 years at HPI/HB I am moving on to pastures new from 29th June.

I'd like to thank everyone at HPI/HB Europe USA and JP for their support over the last 7 years.

I'll still pop in from time to time on the HPI/HB forum here on oOple if anyone has any questions feel free to ask, I won't say no.

I'll still be running the Cyber 10B this weekend for it's last outing before it becomes a shelf queen alongside my D4WCE.

I wish all you guys on here the best with your racing.

Good Luck:thumbsup:

Adam Skelding

Good luck mate, I think you've done a great job at HPI/HB and it's just a shame we never got to see the car you designed make production :cry:

Chrislong 23-06-2009 03:26 PM

I was sorry that the D2 didn't make production too, I was fully intending on running one when I left X-factory. I could see the amount of work you had put in to it, it looked fantastic. Whoever has the prototypes better keep them safe - they ought to be worth a tidy few quid quite quickly!!!

A massive good luck with you new ventures mate!

Good luck with the career change mate and all the best for the future.
Surely you have a d2 on the shelf also. Does this mean the edit brand will be missing your services too?

mes 23-06-2009 06:18 PM

All the best, Adam!

telboy 23-06-2009 06:34 PM

:oOhh, what a shame!

Good luck in the new venture matey.
Can't wait to see what you have planned for the future. :)

Anyone else think that HPI/HB are having a bit of trouble at the mo, the D2 disappearing, and they let Surikarn C and Ronald Volker go from the TC side of things, and now Adam going... just sounds a bit weird to me!

mark christopher 23-06-2009 06:51 PM

Adam
firstly, thanks for all the help you have offered me over the years, very much appreciated.

good luck with your new venture, with you on board they can only move forward!:cool:

D2 on the Shelf....
Hmmm, Yes I do. They'd need a small army to remove that from my shelf

Edit brand will now be run from HPI alongside HPI/HB/Maverick/Merlin

Chris Doughty 23-06-2009 07:38 PM

Adam,

Interesting times.... good luck with the future :D

I'll still be trackside, just working for another RC manufacturer (& marshalling your car of course ;) )

I'll pop up somewhere else on oOple.
