WOW, we made it back in one piece. What an EPIC weekend for Large Scale R/C! Let me give you all a quick run down of the event and we will return later with more details, images and video once we are able to gather ourselves and get some editing done.
.
As far as we know the Hostile Bajafest 2011 was the largest gathering of HPI Baja’s ever recorded. I believe the final count was 209. Maybe even the largest gathering of off-road 1/5’s? None the less 200 is an enormous number and it represents the hard work and effort Hostile and his team puts into each and every event. Year after year the venue improves, the turnout increases and the excitement level hits full throttle.
.
This year event was extra special for the Hostile compound. It was the location chosen by Team Losi to make their large scale debut of the 5IVE-T 4WD BND 1/5th scale R/C. LSN gave you all the details HERE , LIVE feeds of the release HERE and asked you for your feedback on how it would effect our industry HERE. Look for more content on the Losi 5IVE-T 4WD coming to LSN shortly. LSN/TGN were one of the lucky ones to get a 5IVE-T for us to race with at Hostile and the best way I could explain this truck is by saying this, “It’s the RC truck I have waited for all my life”. BIG, BAD and TUFF!
.
We will leave you with some important links to the event coverage and the hottest Losi 5IVE-T news and coverage below. More to come on the Hostile event soon, we promise.
