i dont think so because the whole chassis is carbon fiber.
and ive also compared it with a sprint 2 and the shock towers and the steering configuration are different.

Looks like a RS4 2 with a bunch of upgrades.

There was a carbon fibre conversion made for the Sprint 2's. It's just had to get hold of.

Who knows, i still think its a sprint 2 lol.

I would say a Pro 2, virtually the same as a Sport 2.

Yeah?? How new is the Sport 2? the Sport 2 was based off the Pro 2, just with less of the fancy stuff. But it could be upgraded with carbon fiber this and aluminum that... Then it would look like a Pro 2 again.
FYI, both are discontinued. I said Sport 2, not Sprint 2.
Compare these: Pro 2: http://www.hpiracing.com/kits/heritage/p2-m.htm, Sport 2: http://www.hpiracing.com/kits/sport2/s2-m.htm

Next time, Read carefully before posting.

Yea with all the carbon fiber and the ano alum the first thing I think of is the SPORT 2, HPI would never put that much Fiber into an entry level car so why would the SPORT 2 ever come up?
