Description

The end prize for this comp is the HPI Venture18 1985 Toyota Hilux SR5 Brushed. It is a free entry comp and limited to 1 ticket per person.
 
Like its bigger brother, the Venture18 combines a tough formed steel C-channel chassis with a realistic suspension and drivetrain. Despite its compact size, this truck is packed with impressive features, including a new all-metal 2-speed transmission, 4-link front and rear suspension, and universal telescopic counter-rotating driveshafts. With authentically scaled oil-filled shock absorbers and full-time locked differentials, the Venture18 offers dependable handling in all off-road conditions.
The Venture18 also marks the return of officially licensed Toyota products to the HPI Racing lineup. The meticulously crafted 1985 Toyota Hilux SR5 body features a clipless polycarbonate body, and it’s available in two striking color options – a Gloss Black and a vibrant Gloss Red with a bold stripe kit. The body is prepainted and also features clear windows, plus scale accents like Toyota emblems, front grill, door handles, wipers, functional mirrors, plus tube-style bumpers and rollbars for an impressive level of realism. The fitted LED light kit enhances the authenticity even further, giving the Venture18 that extra layer of detail that truly stands out!
FUNCTIONING LED LIGHTS WITH TURN SIGNALS 
The Venture18, features a fully functional LED light set that’s directly controllable from your transmitter!
The Venture18 offers 5 distinct light modes out of the box, all easily cycled through with a simple push of a button on the transmitter. From Day Mode, to Dusk to Night Mode for full illumination, the Venture18 has you covered in any lighting condition.
The Venture18 features a sturdy and reliable 4-link suspension front and at the rear. 4mm composite rod links with integrated ball links form the lower and upper suspension links front and rear.
The Venture18 chassis is loaded with potential, making it extremely versatile on the trail and up tough climbing routes. Its capability lies in several factors, including off-road friendly clearance angles from the tire contact points to the bumpers and chassis, as well as good ground clearance thanks to its minimal diff case size.
The Venture18 is equipped with an all-metal, servo-operated 2-speed transmission, designed for superior performance and durability. With the flick of a switch on the transmitter, you can effortlessly switch between low and high gears, giving you the flexibility to tackle any terrain with ease.
Low Gear boasts an impressive final drive ratio of 81.44:1, providing exceptional slow-speed crawling capabilities for those tight, technical trails and obstacles. And when you need a burst of speed on a flat, open section – or just need a wild amount of power to get up a climb! – simply shift to High Gear on the transmitter for a final drive ratio of 20.36:1, offering a blast of speed!
Say goodbye to the hassle of traditional body clips! The Venture18 Clipless Body Mounting System offers a seamless, secure, and efficient solution for mounting and removing body. Designed for ease of use and built to last, this system eliminates the need for messy clips that can get lost or break during extended trailing sessions. With a single twist-lock mechanism and a rear hinge, you’ll enjoy quick access to the chassis and effortless battery swaps, making your Venture18 experience smoother and more enjoyable than ever.
