I used to own what Skullfudge has, an HPI Savage 4.6 big block.
Awesome bit of kit mega fast off road but being nitro and all they can become tiresome with starting issues due to weather temp, the correct glow plugs and the correct fuel mixture for summer and winter!
plus you need a big bag of spares if you go right out into the deep woods with em and start doing jumps!
Decided to jack all the nitro stuff in and went out and bought the HPI Baja 5B with 23cc two stroke engine, which lasted two weeks may i add as i found a tuned exhaust a 26cc piston and head upgrade which i had to have.
But these are so much more user friendly, so easy to start as there pretty much a tuned strimmer engine, pull and go. easy to work on and the fuel lasts 20 times longer. 1 tank to the nitro's 6 or 7.
There's a better version out now Call the Baja 5Bss and the 5Tss which is a truck, these have all the alloy upgrades on already.
Mmmm got me thinking again now.
