considering the price of the H2, the touring car is a little on the pricey side.
When initially announced i thought i might get one for a bit of fun at local club, but at that price, its too much.

agreed, only £40 cheaper than the new MI5.

take a look at the rgt on the UK teampowers page it is a competitive car and spares are dirty cheap

The H4E is a full on race kit with all the spec of the current top tourers.
Obviously there more is extensive use of the more exotic materials (carbon, CNC alloy) then the H2, which is mainly plastic so it was always going to cost more then that. There are CNC options for the H2 but these will be standard on the H4E.

Comparing like for like I think the H4E is still cheaper then most/all the equivalent cars.

i guess for what u get, the price is probably about right.

its just not what i was expecting. based on the H2 being cheap, plastic, but awesomely good car, i was expecting the same from the TC, and it would have persuaded me to try some TC while keeping costs down.

It looks good though, and its good to see Hobao finally really getting into the racing market more than the bashing scene.
