2022 20TH ANNIVERSARY HPI RACING WR8 (3.0 NITRO + FLUX) 2001 WRC SUBARU IMPREZA

[@juliodc1231]

So sick, I definitely love the nitro version. The sound and revs with the smoke gives it that extra bit of realistic value

[@carbonelement77]

Totally agree ;)

[@Otiesh]

nice video, where can I get similar antennas

[@13bj]

I’m with you my friend, I will always love nitro.

[@mannyrcon]

You made the best video about this car so far. I appreciate your attention for good footage. I want this car! I race electric car but I'd love for this car to be my first nitro car.

[@salmaqushair9516]

Because of you i am falling in love with these little RC beasts. So much fun

[@lawrencewinter]

Great clip bro. I stuck a gopro on the under side of my transmitter so I can film and drive. That nitro HO engine sings hey. Remarkable. I'm here running the flux version on 2s and it's plenty. Love marking a course through the trees in my park and seeing the sway and body roll as I wind through the course. It's an incrédible rc

[@randomworld75]

Ordering one today. Excellent video.

[@carbonelement77]

Thanks ! Enjoy it :)

[@mjsrcs3725]

Oh m8 where can you get the antennas and exhaust pipe bud looks awesome I might be getting one of the bud 👍

[@matusknives]

Awesome video, thank you. It's great to see them side by side - I love how realistic the suspension drives. I am lacking the experience, but the Nitro just drives so cool! I was only reading (viewing, really, it is 2022) on electric RC cars, but I guess I should take a serious look at Nitro. Thanks again. Do you plan any more videos on these two (if you still have them)?

[@carbonelement77]

Thank you and yes I will. I’ll be comparing them to other models in the future

[@KOL630]

Can’t beat the sound of an obnoxious nitro car. Great collection dude.

[@georgecouper3952]

Where did that little rear exit exhaust come from for the nitro version? Looks awesome!

[@EriMCardenasRC]

Imagine a HPI 1/8 touring Nitro🔥

[@laboite-a-rc]

👋😁 Great vidéo my friend Nice sharing 👏💯👍✌️

[@maherbusedra1667]

Bravo Nabih from Cardinal Racing :)

[@carbonelement77]

Thanks bud 🙏 appreciate it :)

[@brandonherrera2891]

I just bought a losi brushless truck. Luckily I haven't used it. Gonna return it, and buy this. I really wanted Nitro anyways.

[@ejicon3099]

Where did you purchase the FLUX model from? I can't seem to find it anywhere online.

[@kahmed7328]

Man…gonna need the Nitro version now! Thank you! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@carbonelement77]

Hehe Anytime :)

[@blameusa7082]

Boss i love this video, this is what made me turn to the Nitro side!! I have one and am on the 1st tank of full use, i turned needle and still quite smokey, but it so fast for me, i dont need it any faster so i can leave it quite rich? it has great throttle and idle

[@g-radiocontrol3739]

awesome rig

[@ll.7927]

Damn I wish I got the gas version but don’t really have a spot where ppl wouldn’t complain. But the electric version is a blast to drive as well. Also I raised my body post so the body sits even higher this helps with bumps n jumps so body doesn’t smash floor. Doesn’t look bad at all for the added benefit of driving

[@carbonelement77]

Agreed I love both equally but nitro is so much fun

[@Smiths-tr4ro]

Thats sick! I have the nitro ken block version, there both wicked as!

[@carbonelement77]

💯🙏

[@captainmarvel576]

Where did you buy nitro version ? HPI website does not seem to allow direct purchase.

[@stevenoram5139]

Nice vid.. Where did you get that nice looking exhaust tail pipe for wr8 body? I just got nitro version it doesn't come with that tail pipe for body 👍

[@carbonelement77]

I made it :)

[@chrisginoc]

Would you choose the wr8 over the Cen puma rally?

[@rcplaytime]

wow amazing, I'm edging towards electric version😀👍👍👍

[@iSantiiHD]

Can I fit an C4 bodywork for example, or another different bodywork that isn’t the subaru one on that chassis?? Thanks! And good video man :)

[@teamjc_NY]

Great video!

[@salmenda]

And idea about the size comparison of the wr8 and the traxxas ford fiesta rally?

[@lucamicalicapparelli4825]

Hello, good or bad spending the same amount, between this electric rc and the infraction 3s BLX arrma, which I think you have tried, which one would you recommend? Or what other 1/8 RTR to use on asphalt or dirt, always of high quality, fast and with good driveability? Thank you.

[@charlesmiranda8453]

Where to buy the nitros?

[@sammygonzalez7627]

I know with the electric version you can make adjustments with the spur and pinion gear to achieve even faster speeds. Can this be also done with the nitro version? Them small antenna on the roof...nothing but Realism

[@Harvz78]

Does it have 2 speed like the old RS4?

[@troy45uk]

Got both the flux and nitro versions of this already with Fiesta shells and wondering where I can get the Subaru shell to go on one of them 🤔 it looks great. Seen another review with same comments about the hole in windscreen on the nitro car for cooling but think you’ll find this is mainly for refilling the fuel tank without needing to remove the body shell 👍

[@carbonelement77]

I think hpi will start selling them separately soon. Yes the hole is multi use for cooling re fueling etc :)

[@charleswatson3951]

Can't beat nitro! Out of interest, do you know any aftermarket engines that would drop into the wr8?

[@katek6411]

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😍😍😍😍

[@zachattack2016]

Always perferr nitro because its more real like the real thing! And you can build any nitro faster than a brushless

[@New2Kendo]

You need to tune your idle and lsm till it stops keeping a high idle at rest

[@George-hr5cv]

Anyone know if you can convert the nitro wr8 to electric

[@pedrosolenoid2898]

If you really had to choose just one, which one would it be now that you have had them for a period of time?

[@carbonelement77]

Very tough question but I think nitro

[@pedrosolenoid2898]

@@carbonelement77 Thanks, think I am leaning that way myself. If only I got the same prices in Scotland as you do in the USA then I might of bought 2 lol

[@Dicedoff6789]

everything is included ,

[@carbonelement77]

Yes you only need nitro fuel and the glow plug :)

[@Dicedoff6789]

ok thanks

[@thethrottlecracker]

All violence no silence! Needs a 2 speed

[@KOL630]

Also think HPI’s stock receivers are some of the nicest designs. The ones included by other companies are ugly AF. Always likes HPI as a brand.

[@cyrusshellard3905]

Electric just aint the same buzz at all. Nitro always the 1

[@Harvz78]

After watching the nitro, I find that electric is boring.

[@Dicedoff6789]

?

[@rafaelsilveira26]

Nitro is better lok

[@roshangrant3320]

Throw that electric car into the trash

[@carbonelement77]

Noo 😂
