In this thrilling episode of Tomley RC, we delve into the exhilarating world of Hot Wheel-sized RC cars, a phenomenon that has taken the industry by storm. While most models hail from lesser-known Chinese manufacturers, the spotlight shifts to HPI Racing with their latest release - a fully licensed Nano TTR 164 scale '69 Ford Mustang. This beauty not only bears the prestigious Ford logo but also boasts licensing from RTR Racing, setting it apart from the competition. With attention to detail, including proper steering, realistic lights, and competitive pricing, this model aims to dominate a bustling market.
Upon unboxing, the Nano TTR impresses with its HPI Spec Grip replica tires, ultra-bright headlights, and working turn signals controlled via a trigger. The car's red-lit brake and reverse lights add to the realism, while the real steer technology allows for precise proportional steering. Despite a noisy motor, the vehicle delivers a quick and well-controlled driving experience on various surfaces, showcasing its versatility and performance. While lacking a gyro for drifting, the car excels in cruising and basic maneuvers, making it a hit among enthusiasts and collectors alike.
Priced at a reasonable $39.99, the Nano TTR offers exceptional value, especially considering its ability to bind to existing transmitters. As the team reflects on the potential of future releases from HPI, visions of a micro Escort Cosworth or a BMW 2002 Turbo dance in their heads, fueling excitement for what's to come in the world of licensed micro RC cars. Stay tuned as Tomley RC continues to push the boundaries of innovation and performance in the realm of miniature racing machines.
