M-05 RC Honda S800 Racing

In the early-1960s, Honda began venturing into the world of motor car racing after it had achieved great success in the manufacture of motorcycles. In 1962, Honda revealed its first four wheeled vehicles, the S360 and S500. Capitalizing on advanced technical knowhow gained from the motorcycle World Grand Prix races, Honda’s aluminium four cylinder DOHC engine boasted a crankshaft rotating on needle roller bearings. The top of the line 2-seat sports car S800 made its debut in 1965. The high revving engine was capable of 70hp and propelled the lightweight 710kg vehicle up to 160km/h. After its debut, numerous S800s were observed in various motorsports events such as gymkhana, hill-climb, and circuit races, showing off its tremendous performance.

The problem is not having the same shell as everyone else, its how creative you can get to set your shell apart from the rest!

Jebjeb,

Agreed being unique and having a shell that no one else has is the best way to do it, so the race is on to see who will get the first shell to show off with!hahahaha

Here is another one that has not been properly announced...

I thnk this might even beat the HPI shell, and it definately beats the one on the M-chassis...

It is going to be on the DF-03RA chassis...
