oh yes it will be mine "thumbsup"

 

[cbp27]

That's awesome! :mrgreen:

 

[DeaDShorT]

Very cool, I like the white body. Clean slate to muddle up with stickers a such.;-)

with the other tires, they look like tarmac tires, wouldn't it make sense to have them and get the more aggressive tires for dirt racing? just a thought that popped into my head.

 

[Die-Laughing]

yeah.. you know everyones going to have 7 sets of tires anyways :ror:

 

[ghtpdm5]

i figured it was a stupid one lol. of course the stupidest question of all is the one not asked.

 

[Mega Fattie]

When the *#~K is this coming out? I am ready to buy it right now.

 

[pigeonfarmboy]

Definitely could go for an expected release date.

 

[Mega Fattie]

I look for any kind of update at all on the wr8 a few times a week. There is no new info about it, or even a release date anywhere.

I also just saw Stormer Hobbies has the Nitro WR8 listed for 339.00. Only place I saw it listed for sale. Still not available though. But we are getting close!

 

[Mega Fattie]

$340 is cheap!

 

[justinart24]

Holy cow! That handled the track like a champ....nice driving."thumbsup"

 

[cbp27]

Nice find Turtle! Looks great!!

 

[Mega Fattie]

First info I've seen of availability date: February 14th
HPI WR8 Castrol Ford Fiesta Abu Dhabi WRC RTR 106950

That link now says the Due Date is now "March 14th 2012"

As long as its here by april im happy.

 

[TURTLE]

Lack of release date here is strange. HPI has released rally stuff to Europe first before though.

 

[TURTLE]

Yeah lack of release date anywhere is really strange. That was the only place online I could find it for sale. Hell this thread is the most informative thing on the net for the WR8. It is pretty strange though, I would have thought we would have had some dates by now or even the nitro version. I will still keep faith that it will start popping up in the next couple of weeks.

I just don't see the point of advertising it 3 months ago and then giving zero information about it after that. Crappy marketing if you ask me.

Man somebody did an amazing job recording that video :shock::for:

Shortly after he let me drive it, awesome little car for sure. Felt like it was on rails.
