The Cup Racer combines amazing features and racing spec in
true-to-scale one-tenth size, in what we call 'True Ten' design! With
the HPI True Ten performance chassis, you have the opportunity to
experience the joy of owning a super-realistic representation of some
of the most legendary sports cars ever made.
Ultimate Scale Realism:
The
concept behind the Cup Racer and True Ten scale is simple: to make the
best-looking, most realistic car models available. To do this, the HPI
body production department teamed up with our top car designers to put
together the the True Ten look, which authentically reproduces actual
cars in a way that makes them look exactly like the real thing. These
aren't slammed and lowered versions lookalikes designed for ultimate
performance, though: the True Ten ideal is to replicate the real cars
as they are in real life - in width, height, length and detail, with
details so precise that real car fans wouldn't be able to tell the
difference at first glance.
Authentic Detailing:
The
True Ten series features the most painstaking attention to detail that
our designers have ever tackled. Every body line and curve from the
real car is represented in the crash-resistant bodyshell. Every door
line, bootlid and side skirt is represented exactly as it appears on
the real car. There are even reproductions of the actual windscreen
wipers, bumpers, exhaust systems and mirrors, allowing the HPI True Ten
series to deliver the utmost in scale car driving!
HPI graphics
designers are already legendary for producing the most accurate
bodyshell graphics you can find, and when you combine that with the
uniquely crystal-clear bodyshells from our body production department
and the new ultra-scale accessories, you get pure scale magic.
To
complete the True Ten concept, the challenge of the design team was to
put the scale bodies on a chassis that is truly deserving of the
ultimate scale looks. This involved a complete re-think of how scale RC
cars are designed and used by today's RC hobbyists. Scale modelers want
something that just works, however experienced RC hobbyists and racers
want something that can be tuned to perform. We think our guys nailed
it.
Ready to Perform:
Experienced RC racers will be
able to take one look at the Cup Racer chassis and see for themselves
the performance potential of this all-new chassis! A huge array of
tuning adjustments is possible using the standard kit parts.
The
Cup Racer features full-time 4WD, a super-stiff chassis, oil-filled
shocks and inboard front shocks, plus as the ability to independently
adjust suspension settings such as caster, camber, track width, roll
center, wheelbase, anti-dive, anti-squat, droop and much more! If you
like your cars to drive as well as they look, the Cup Racer is for you!
Designed for Excellence
From
the very start, the True Ten scale Cup Racer was engineered for
top-level performance at a reasonable cost - while still maintaining
the true-to-scale look that scale modelers desire. To accomplish this,
HPI designers have taken it upon themselves to perfect concepts that
long-time HPI owners may recognize, but haven't seen in their ultimate,
final form.
With the Cup Racer, you can find elements of past
HPI achievements put together to make the ultimate scale RC
enthusiast's machine - ready for your hands to assemble and create the
magic that is radio control modeling.
