nope, rs4's are not very good. They go about as fast as a savage with a hyper 8 on street tires

The Pole has spoken

 

[SilentHunterKellen]

Hyper eight is slower than a Rs4.
Lmao...I think that RS4 are GrEaT. I drove my friends TC3 and boy is it good. But still, the RS4 seems perfect in terms of reliability and speed. Shove in that 2spd and a sirio .12. Wowzer.

Okay, ima cut the crap-TC3 owns the Rs4 but I voted rs4 becauase I have one

by the way - for all the mis informed out there - Team Associated, does not build any product with a Belt drive. Period.

wow - the RS4 got 6 votes? thats 6 more than i though possible.

finally - what touring car has one more national championships than any other? the NTC3

what touring car has never one a championship? oh yeah, the RS4. Its a toy.

LOL! Man you are harsh!

The RS-4 doesn't SUCK! This poll is a matter of preference. Stands to reason most would prefer the NTC3 over the RS-4. However, add CEN, Schumacher and especially Serpent to the mix, and the results would be a little more tilted IMO. The Serpents are just plain BADASS cars and have a lot to offer.

Every Sunday night here you can go to the parking lot of a mall and see the on-roads run. There is a 50/50 mix of serpents and ntc3's. I've watched the Serpents take the NTC3's on many of occasions, but, I've also watched the same driver whoop on everyone with an NTC3 (thats not his). Go figure, he's a damn good driver. Chances are, if you handed him an RS4 he would probably do damn good then too!

The ONLY on-road car I would not get is the Traxxas one. I've seen it desintigrate taking a roll that an NTC3 or Serpent would have eaten up well. Or at least not desintigrate. To me, that is probably the only 'toy-like' on-road out there.

NA - Man you are a loyalist!!! lmao!! You are starting to sound like us Kyosho buggy guys now!!!!! hahahah

LOL - i know - but this guy said he wanted to race - and i just cannot see someone buying an HPI for a racer. I notice u say that at the parking lot there are tons of serpents and NTC3's out there? wow - no HPI's eh? suprise suprise! U also mention that if the expert driver was driving an HPI - he could hold his own - maybe - but he isnt drving an HPI! why? because he is an expert driver and knows better, LOL. I know that hpi makes some very good, reliable cars - along with tons of aftermarket support. i just can't see how anyone would buy one now, after the NTC3 has proven to be such a better product?!?

 

[knemo77]

well the hpi is much cheaper...thats why i bought it.:mex:

 

[jon2]

can't argue that but the NTC3 is such a better made kit The money you would use to get the CVD's a 2speed tranny threaded shocks ...you will be thinking I spent more money just getting all the hop ups when I could have gotten the NTC3 kit!! and bought a kick arse mill!!

 

[joneser4u]

why I have a HPI, well in racing I like the underdog,and I love it when I show up at a race with my RS4 and people (TC3 owners)say ohhhh, just another bucket HPI! and them my bucket HPI smokes your ass!:alarm:

 

[SilentHunterKellen]

can't argue there. When you're in club races where noone is "pro" HPI's can hold their own. NTC3's are for the followers who like to get the car thats winning. I have to agree with joneser4u because I love watching HPI's smoke TC3's at my track. The TC3 owners are POS drivers that would lose to my Savage on a road course. The only time when the NTC3 shows its guts is when it is tuned and run by a Professional Driver.

 

[jon2]

when it all comes down to it it s the DRIVER!!! A pro driver can tune a car to keep up with the best . The NTC3 is just a well made ride. Besides an engine, body and the essentials, what else would you buy?

 

[SilentHunterKellen]

Id buy a couple hookers and pizza.
