The Ken Block RX43 Gymkhana Fiesta is one of the most Iconic and Famous Cars out there. The HPI WR8 RC Car version is in my opinion one of the Best RC Cars ever made, and has certainly earn't legend status. #kenblock #hoonigan #rccar

@mrmagoo.3678 I live in a city called Caraguatatuba, in Sao Paulo state. 😊 It's difficult to pronunciate, but it's a great place. It's a beach city. And, by the way, a neighbor of mine is from Portugal, but worked as an engineer for decades for Nasa! Anyway, if you ever come, let me know. We can take a good cup of coffee. 😊

I can't think of parting from my WR8's. I first got the Impreza because of Richard Burns being my favourite rally driver. By a strike of grace I was able to get the Ken Block RX version (blue wheeled beast) and I can't get enough of it The looks, the sound, the power and the whole driving experience is frikkin' awesome. Merci from Belgium for your content and attitude of gratitude. I salute you Mr T, MERCI!

@wolfenher6937 11 месяцев назад

I’ve been wanting the WR8 Flux since 2013 when Gymkhana 5 came out but I never had that kind of money to buy one and I was just getting into RC Hobby back then. I was sad that it went discontinued for a long time until last year I heard they brought it back but this time it was the Subaru WRX STI body which I believe it was the Colin McRae edition. They did also brought back the Nitro version as well.

@TomleyRC 11 месяцев назад

Yes, although the Subaru seems to be hard to find now as well!

Couldnt respect you more for this tomley - you knew what the market was looking like in terms of ken blocks merch being sold at sky high prices upon news of his death but rather than cash in like the rest of them you did something productive and gave it for someone else to have fun with 100% some collector would just shove that on the shelf if sold it regular which isnt a bad thing but realistically they are ment to be driven like real cars Ive never understood people whom buy such an investment and turn it into an expensive paperweight but hey .. not my money 😂 Fair play tomley thank you for being something positive for the community and giving back man ♥️+1000 respect Im sure in the spirit of the sport ken would be proud

@williamperri3437 11 месяцев назад

I owned it in 2019 before Hpi went out of business. I’ve had over 30 RC’s and it doesn’t take long to realize this is one of the best RC’s ever made. The problem was I would destroy the wheels in 4 or 5 runs and to replace them with the stock wheels it was like $100 and the aftermarket wheels were horrible! Hpi parts were as expensive as upgraded redcat parts, but way harder to find because they did not have support and in 2019 they were having major issues trying to stay in business. this is the only RC I’ve ever owned that I was able to do a full 360 at almost full speed without flipping it. There’s a video of fresh squeezed RC doing the same thing!!!

They’re a great basher and I’m trying to make it a entry level car for Drifting and Touring 🙂. But Finding upgrade parts for my car it’s so hard. 😢 I hope I could find one.

@scaleworksRC 3 месяца назад

I knew of Ken Block and Hoonigan, but didn't pay much attention to the new rally cars until recently. The look of them is so off putting, I just knew about Colin McRae and watched rally back in the early 2000s. But watching footage of the full scale likes of the Yaris and Fiestas, they are slowly growing on me. Those cars do some insane Group B type of stuff and the fans haven't seemed to learn from history 😁. I don't like how they all look the same, but I get it.. it's for the safety of the drivers at the end of the day. Can't wait to race you on that rally track in the skies, Ken! Legends never die!
