I paid jack for my kanai2, got it used vgc. But if i was buying one new - i still think it'd be worth every cent too. Didn't say the X5's or storms were inferior (where did that come from) - but while it feels good to win with anything at the track, you can win with anything at the track.

When it comes to beating the crap out of them, I just think the k's hold up a bit better and for longer. and if moneys the matter, theres plenty of good deals on ebay. thats all i was trying to say.

vb - the sports (rtr?) isn't too bad at all, my friend owns one, but to get it up to par with the kanai's, you probably would want to upgrade a few things along the way - spur, diff main gears, maybe some shocks and aftermarket shock towers etc - but for the most part its pretty sweet out of the box for its price :)
 
hey i have a hyp 7 pcr and run the chit out of it and have not broken a thing yet.i think i can keep right up with k3. on the track
 
well.....i just got a Mugen mbx4 with radio, engine and 4 sets of tires for 350

gotta love ebay!!!!
 
Good work, go ebay :party:

which version of the x4 is it? vanilla, RR or XR?
should be a neat bug, enjoy!
 
well the mugen fell through :angry: what do you guys think of an ofna 9.5 violator w/.26 engine?

VB
 
If you ever want to race the Violater is just that. Arms are too long for almost all compition as well as the gas tank being to large.
 
Sounds like a race made in E-heaven. All we need is an 1/8 scale babe with a flag. Oh I got one right here.
 
Just my two cents I picked up a Hyper PBS a few weeks ago and am really happy with it. The Hyper motor is hard to breakin but worth it when its done this thing runs like a raped ape. The only down fall is the starter box it comes with is weak and I had to up grade it. Also the PCR edition is the same rig with some upgrades and a pull start. Hope this helps and you fined what you like.

I called OFNA and they said it is not a turbo engine. It requires a long plug though so depending on where you live your plug choice will be right or wrong. I mean is it hot or cold where you live. I hve a medium plug and hot plug. MC-9 (Med), MC-59(HOT)

THe engine I have is the Hyper 21 8 port race engine. This is the Non Pull start mill. Has 2.7hp at 38000rpm.
