Default Dang! $305 Hyper 7 .28 PBS RTR @ Tower!!!

This is a good deal! These are their daily overstocks, so who knows, it might go lower. I bought a used Hyper 7 roller with an OS-21 (no radio gear) a year ago for $300 (before the Hyper 8 came out.)

The Hyper 7 is just one of those buggies that makes a great basher and a decent club racer. It has GREAT aftermarket and parts support- don't believe me, go on ebay and do a search for 'hyper 7'- there are 473 listings for parts and cars right now. If anyone is in the market for an entry 1/8 buggy, this is still a better choice then the Ravager, Ofna MBX, XTM offerings, etc. All this thing needs are batteries and fuel! (glow starter, fuel bottle, etc, included)

Plus, the Hyper 7 has been around for years, and they recently released the TQ pro and sport kits. Parts shouldn't be a problem for years.

If I was in the market for an entry level buggy, I wouldn't even think twice about this one.

HAHA YES!!
I was shocked i thought it was a mistake,

so i ordered one today, after being in the market
for a 1/8 for years.
Actually after rebate its only $280 on Tower now!

Why pay more for a Violator or an Ultra with a force 26,
when u can get a Hyper 7 PBS w/ a Mach 28 for
well under $300??

Definantly glad i jumped on this deal, i cant wait for
my buggy to get here!

Is this the same as any of the other hyper 7? i was gonna get the TQ kit and reading the specs there appear to be the same ecept for a couple things........ I went an ordered on..... I dunno what im gonna go with all these buggies..... lol i know have a Ultra LX an Ultra Comp and now a hyper 7 when it gets here....... Guess i'll be putting some up on ebay, I already got radio equipment and and engines that are better than the one that comes on it, so i got like 2 extra engines now....

I really do like these buggies.....

$301 now! Tower has a $25 off for orders over $199 special too (checkout code 010NW). That gets you a hyper 7 RTR for $276!!!

Hey, another person said Tower has the Hyper 7 PBS for 301.36 still. I checked, he is right.

Overstock is over, it's back at it's regular price now @ $395. Hope anyone that wanted one got one. We won't be seeing that deal anytime soon.
