ORIGINAL: Fuel Crazy

man did they pull the plug on the power in here or what....
It comes and goes in here.There isn't a large volume of bashers driving their trucks regularly like there used to be when there was a lot of activity.I havn't driven my storm in two years and have it up in the local classifieds now. Stuff in here is looking really good, though, the potential for what can be done with these trucks has come a long way. It used to be a big deal to put a hot small block in it and from what I remember maybe two OS .18TZ's have been installed by members in here. Other than that the CV-R was the common aftermarket motor in here (and not too many had them either) before the big blocks started coming in more regularly.

HPI released an updated 2.4 GHz version of the storm with waterproof servos and new cosmetics.
