That's awesome! I remember the HPI RS3s, those were a popular chassis. My first car (although a step down from this one) was very similar to this SuperTen I just got except the center diff came standard with the QRC system (reverse) and I added a two speed trans.

I'm pretty excited to get back into the hobby and look forward to adding the hop-up parts like I would have done when I was in middle school. This Kyosho will get a two speed trans, aluminum and carbon replacement parts (if I can find them, it's an old car), and of course the rotary.

The rotary engine is the tricky part for this build, OS discontinued these years ago so I just have to keep my eyes out for a good used one on eBay. . Jess has a few and said I could use one years ago when we were still at the shop but after running it by him the other day I assume he forgot and wants to keep them. . Which is understandable since these things are going for astronomical prices especially if NIB! So anyways, I'm just gonna enjoy this as it is and keep an eye out for the Wankel.
