Should I?

[wilxayboi]

I'm considering getting that new HPI firestorm.
What do u guys think of it if you have seen it running?
Should I buy it??

I've never seen on run, but it looks pretty good!

If you're considering a 2WD stadium truck, I suggest looking at the RC10GT and the RC10GT2. The RC10GT is a proven racer, very reliable, easy-as-pie to wrench on and there are literally gobs of after-market parts for it!

The RC10GT2 is brand-new and has a lot of great features, but I personally can't speak to it's reliability. That being said, if it's anything like the original, should be tough as nails.

I've watched a couple GT2's on track and they are freaking dialed! Monkey if you'd ever come out and race you'd see one of them after the dude passes you a half dozen times!

HA HA HA! You're making the assumption I'd even make onto the track, chief! Remember the last time I tried racing my 10GT? Haven't tried again since!

is the firestorm not 4wd?? i quite like the sound of this new rig . i would buy that or something similar. But i do like them to be 4wd

Not, it's not. It is 2WD. The HPI Nitro MT2 is 4WD.

 

[wilxayboi]

which one has the bigger engine? The Firestorm or the Nitro MT2?

 

[Monkey Wrench]

I don't know. May want to check HPI's site or Tower Hobbies and see what they say.

the mt2 has a .15
the firestorm has a G3.0
