no kit then, just rtr?

It only appears on the site as a rtr. I have to say, though it is blatantley an SC10 rip off it actually looks a better machine than the SC10

if I was mr associated, I would probably consider suing

That would be like actually admitting that HPi have better build quality than Associated.

For me the SC10 just typifies Associateds lack of commitment to producing quality equipment. Don't get me wrong I love my SC10 and could forgive it almost anything but the pathetic wheels and having to take an RTR appart to shim the diff I ask you

Listen here, no more of this bad mouthing SC10's mine has just gone to bed very upset having peeped over and read the above posts. His last words were "I give them all this fun and that's how they really feel"

Harris stay out of Lucas's way on Friday he's likely to give you a talking to.

After watching the crazy sc10's at Caldicot club last night I definately want a piece of the action! been doing a bit of research and looks like im going to wait for the arrival of the HPI Blitz, been looking 'state side' & found an rtr package that equates to £114, great i thought, i'll have one! went to shipping. . .$109!!! which brings the total to just over £180 plus there will no doubt be tax to pay at customs. eagerly watching for a uk release date . . .no ganging up on the Blitz!

SC10's are THE shizzle. Mines took everything I could throw at it and keeps coming back like an eager puppy. I wish all my "racing cars" were so reliable and strong.(and fun too)

I agree the the blitz is going to be a much stonger truck then the sc10, with it's all metal gear chain, 12mm hex wheel adaptors, thicker plastics all round...
But!!!! The worldwide launch date is november. too long to weight
Will it's extra weight give it handling problems
What will the kit tyers be like...
