Yah it has been a while since they had it out i even emailed HPI asking them if it will be sold in US they said no =(

 

[necromaster]

it was on sale in lhs near me at a ridiculous price. but i personally would get Baja 5t over it... gas over nitro..

going to say that the 5.9 is way underpowered for something that big.

I'm sorry but this just looks silly. All they did was extend the chassis a ton.

hpi ftw but even great companies have a few flops now and then and this is one of them.

 

[fluxinator]

Lol there is enough space for 2! If they sold the tvps seperately I would buy it as a fun project nothing else (4ws ftw)

 

[wildchild27]

i think its just a flop but some may find a benefit from it somewhere tho.

It is sold here in Japan approx $1200. I have seen it run and it is not worth the taught of buying.

maybe with a twin picco done by ERCM? i wonder what can stand up to soo much power?

That is a possibility. Personally when i first saw it i was what the ****. 5.9 in a Baja set up. It was like the Grave Digger with a 4 cylinder engine. Then I watched it run and thats when I said NO NO NO.
