As if people were not excited enough that the HPI Racing Micro RS4 was going to be making a comeback, they have decided to push us over the edge with the announcement of the Ken Block edition! Between this and the Falken Mustang, I think the Micro RS4 line up is going to make a huge impact real soon! We [...]

These are not RC vehicles… yet. Ken Block and the Hoonigan Racing Team has changed things up for 2013! He’s got a new garage/building, and some new wraps on his rides. Long gone is the recognizable green and white, and now the dominant colors are blue, grey, and purple. Fingers crossed for HPI to come up with a alternate body [...]
HPI Racing Ken Block WR8 FLUX ReviewThe rc rally scene seemed to show up out of no where and explode with several companies all releases rally vehicles at the same time.

A few people in the office have been waiting to get their hands on this one, so we are going to be drawing straws or just a flat out brawl to see who gets to do the review in the office. Till then, enjoy pictures. #gallery-5 { margin: auto; } #gallery-5 [...]
The HPI Racing Ken Block WR8 FLUX finally gets official! We have been posting news about the Ken Block vehicle for a while now as bits and pieces were leaked out, but the official PR is finally here. We finally get to see under the body as well. When we saw it in person we couldn’t get our eyes underneath [...]
There have not been that many good photos of the new HPI Ken Block vehicle except for the ones we posted, and a few people have asked if we had any more. So we dug deep to see if there were any we have not posted yet, and I believe this is the last of them. Enjoy, and look for [...]
The HPI crew also made their way to Lincoln Nebraska for the HobbyTown USA Convention. In their suite was their full line-up of cars, buggies and trucks. Of special note was their new Ken Block rally car, which unfortunately we couldn’t take any body-off photos because HPI is still waiting on a few parts. One of their ultra trick Special [...]
With all the Ken Block news we have been posting lately, it seems only appropriate to add the DC Shoes Ken Block Gymkhaha Five video that just came out. Seems like 4 was just released, so I’m surprised to see 5 out soo quickly. For those living under a rock, here is Gymkhana 5:
We recently posted some pictures and a little info about the upcoming Ken Block WR8 Flux coming soon from HPI Racing. Well something caught our attention in the new ad for the vehicle. Normally when a company is showing off a larger scale ride, they do a shadow/outline of how much bigger that vehicle is over a 1/10th or 1/8th [...]
We have been posting info about the Ken Block Vehicle from HPI Racing as it comes in, but I wanted to point out this shot they posted of the rims/tires. The DC logo is a nice little touch. Heck HPI will probably be able to sell just these rims, I know a few people that would add these to [...]
The biggest buzz going around the BigSquid offices this morning is about the forthcoming 10th scale Ken Block Rally Car from HPI. After watching Block score a silver medal at X-Games over the weekend we are all stoked to get in some rally-cross action in the parking lot. Until more information is released here are a few more pictures to wet [...]
Yes, the X-Games took place a bit earlier than normal this year, in case you didn’t notice they went off over the weekend. The biggest news? The middle school invasion and the fact that Travis Pastrana got hacked good ole’ “rc style” in the rally cross race. Such a pity, I was looking forward to watching TP and freshly turned [...]
