To stay at the very top of racing requires constant development, testing and new ideas. Since its release the Hyper 8 has continually been the focus of the HoBao designers to further enhance and improve what was already a winning design. Afterall, a car, team, driver is only as good as his last win!

The release of the new Hyper 8.5 Pro UK brings together the ultimate and most up-to-date racing package consisting of new design features as well as additional optional set-up accessories all inside the box. This is your one-stop buggy to instant success.

Whats different as you may feel it looks the same. Well this version is centred around the UK’s mix of grass, dirt, astro style tracks that all differ considerably from those around the world. The optional FR2 chassis is standard with an additional 2mm extra length at both the front and rear for improved handling, jumping and general driveabilty. Larger, big bore shocks result in more constant and less oil changes during hard long finals. All 5 optional roll-bars are included, along with CNC aluminium suspension arm holders, servo horn, engine/chassis brace, lightweight wheel hubs and wheel dust proof nuts.

The clutch area is further improved with the use of lightweight machined clutch bell, flywheel and CNC aluminium clutch shoes. the virtual bomb proof Spider diffs are exclusively included for the UK as well as new racing dish wheels and the only tyre for grass racing, Angle Spikes.
