HPI Nitro MT2 nitro truck

i have a HPI MT2 so of you need any advise in the near future give me a PM. Check out my photos in the Pictures Section of the forum so you can see what can be done to urs!

I looked at the pictures and the car looks great. Can you tell me how to get the piston to the bottom of the stroke on this motor. I have been told to do that after I shut the motor off.

If you rock the flywheel left and right, you'll feel the resistance as it starts up to compress. Do that a few times, then leave it halfway between those two spots and mark the top of the flywheel with a paint spot or marker.
Every time you turn it off, put that spot on top.

Thanks Rolex. I will try that out.

Just wondering if anyone can shed some light on a previous post that I did. How will my HPI MT2 stack up against a Traxxas T max 3.3?

I believe the MT2 is considered a 4-wheel drive stadium truck not an MT if this helps any.....compared to a T-Maxx they have the same top speed 45 mph but i would say the MT2 would get there faster and be more agile. On the track i would put my money on the MT2 (depending on driver of course) over a T-Maxx any day

Thanks a lot. I wondered why my truck seemed so small :whhooo: Now I see how the MT and MT2 initails work lol. As far as me winning any races anytime soon I seriously doubt it. i broke my A arm during break in if you can believe that.
