A better comparison would be between the GP10s and Nitro RS4. The Nitro
RS4 was designed to compete directly against the GP10s and other similar
cars in its class. These are true 1/10 scales whereas the Super Ten
falls into a category between 1/8 and 1/10 scale. A good comparison
would be between the Super Ten and Tamiya TGX. This larger 1/10 scale
racing has very few fans in the states but is very popular in Japan and
many parts of Asia. Getting back to the subject, the Nitro RS4, Yokomo
YR4GP, and Kyosho GP10s, all fall into the same class of racing and are
equally competetive. The Kyosho is the most poorly equipped car box
stock with the YR4GP being the best. I would shy away from the Yokomo
kit because it is rather old and parts are hard to come by. I would
however recommend either a RS4 or GP10s as they are comparably priced
and easier to buy and get parts for. A best deal would be the Nitro RS4
if you do not plan to compete. If you do plan to compete either would be
fine. Reason being that you will eventually replace most of the parts on
each car anyhow. This is purely sedan talk here, if you want the
ultimate in 1/10 racing gas pan cars are the only way to go.

There is no limited edition Kyosho Super10, only the GP10 there is a
limited edition available.
You cannot compare the RS4 Nitro with Super 10 because the Super 10 is
slightly bigger and beefier and shaft driven, the only car that will come
close to the Super10 is the Tamiya TGX.
The RS4 Nitro and GP10 are similar in size and layout, they are about the
same. which of the two is better it  depends on your preference.
I have the Super10 and Kyosho do sell hop-up parts that let you mount the
SG shaft  OS 15RX (1,2 hp) The only other fasrer on-road is the Serpent
Impacts but I don't consider them as touring car but more of F1 on-road.
