That looks great! Great job on the resto! I have thought about selling my pcr pro a few times over the years, but after seeing your rebuild, no way I'll be letting go of mine.

Worth keeping a Hyper 7 really easy to get parts for and many other models parts fit with none to very little modifications still imo one of the toughest Buggy’s on the market. All I have to do now is drill a hole in my chassis for the PBS front brace to be secured.

Oh, I know, these buggies are tanks. I have the full c hub, and pbs suspension parts, several center diffs, and spare main diffs, miltiple bodies and wings. I did a complete tear down on mine a while back, and it's been sitting on the ofna blue chrome top starter box since. It has a RB Concepts WS7II engine with only about 3/4 of a gallon of fuel through it, and a pro tune linkage kit. I really have no place to run it unfortunately, I am on 10 acres, but it's all sand, and there is no track anywhere near me, which is why I had thought about selling it.

That’s next on my shopping list a nice race 21 engine got a track close enough to me that’s BRCA so worth a trip for a laugh

Ok so had a few nightmares I gave up on the Hyper 30 so many tuning issues for no apparent reason checked and changed almost everything. I did purchase a Picco V1 21 engine but it was sent out via My Hermes and they have lost/stolen it so I had to find another motor I came across a Picco P3-R Evo Turbo SG .21 for £120 brand new never ran with a 4 shoe clutch and flywheel fitted and a glow plug so I bit the bullet and bought it safe to say since my last update there have been a few changes. Ready to take to my local track after a little more gentle break in.

Yh spent way too much time and money on that engine and it just wouldn’t run right checked everything part of that engine with no luck in finding anything wrong so I sold the engine. When running right they are pretty beastly engines
