Track

Hey guys cool track! Where is that location in relation to Marin county? Thanks for getting back to me Mr. wagnerov.
 
I will be there saturday afternoon or sunday morning for some swift action:whip: .
 
Had a chance to really open up the Buggy this weekend, and I must say the engine that comes with the Swift is not that bad. Now I have never had a .21 engine in any vehicale I have owned so I really do not ahve any comparison. But I do have a Serpent Impulse, so I do understand speed, and that SH engine is not bad at all!!! I thought, when I bought it that the engine would probably have to go as I do not expect an RTR engine to be much of anything. This is not true for the Swift.

GREAT JOB PRP!!!!

Try running the SH motor with a number 7 or 8 plug and 30%. Have your temperature range from 230-250 and you'll be ready to pull somebody on a moderate to long strightaway. Have fun.

Hey Wagnerov,
Are there some hobby shops in the east coast that are carrying the swift and parts for the swift yet? It looks like a awesome machine and I know a few people that are interested in a new machine. I told them about the Swift and they are worried about support and getting parts. Is this going to be a problem for them? I live near Pittsburgh and I haven't seen a Swift in the LHS's around here.

This is not Wagerov, but I can awnser your question. There are quite afew dealers in the east coast. The best thing I would suggest is to visit: www.happytimehobby.com and open up the hobbyshop locations. Pick the state that you're located at and look for the closest local hobbyshop near you. All of the hobbyshops that are listed on the website are all active authorized dealers. As for parts support, power racing products have all parts available for the swift. Just have your local hobbyshop order the parts. If your local hobbyshop isn't listed on our website, have them call us so we can set something up for them.
 
thanks........There is nothing local for me. Everything is on the Eastern side of the state. Send me some info. and I will pass it on to the LHS's
