I'm new to nitro and just bought a 4-TEC and are loving this car.I havent had to tune it yet and have gone through around 5 tanks so far.Its still on the same glow plug and it runs really strong.The top end on this car is amazing and I am glad I bought it.I bought this car cause I just wanted something fun to drive out front of my house.I will probably buy another nitro street car soon.This is a new hobby for me and is very addictive and I am glad I found this place.

P.S. If the 4-TEC is really hitting 70mph then I am stoked if not oh well its still fun to drive!

wow are you serious!!!!! i said the motors that people don't take out are the 2.5r's and 3.3's i didn't say 2.5's get your facts straight and the reason i was asking are 1500mah batteries good, is because I'm new at electric and i wanted to know Ive been driving nitro for a while now and i wanted something different!!!!!wow i missed spelled something, are you pointing that out cause it makes you feel powerful...everyone makes misspelling mistakes!!!! and i would love to see you run circles around my rustler i know you can run circles around my t-maxx...and yeah i own a hpi and it sucks @$$, your telling me to shut up look(SHUT THE **** UP! YOU DON'T EVEN OWN A 4TEC!!!) um do you own a 4-tec evidentually you dont cause you cant DOUBT it can hit 70+ so you know what, SHUT THE F**K up!!!!!!

ok well first, i'm sorry for not seeing the "r" second, i appologize to everyone who is reading this thread on behalf of myself and this little **** right here... and no, i'm not pointing it out to feel powerful, but obviously you feel you need to leave a **** load of un-neccesary posts to make yourself feel powerful...

btw... yea you own a Micro RS4, duh it's a peice of ****, that was my first car, the first chance I had I got rid of it.... HPI's forte is in Nitro, Not electric, anyone who owns one could tell you that...

and for the record, yes I DID own a 4tec, about a year or two ago, I hated it, and when i saw the 70+MPH sticker on the box I laughed and doubted it, and still doubt it to this day...

as for the rest of you, I'm glad youa re enjoying your 4-tecs, I wasn't too fond of mine, and apperently, this ass **** isn't too fond of me... so before he has a heart attack trying to figure out what he's gonna say next, i'm dropping the subject... HOWEVER, I still DOUBT the 4-tec goes 70+ out of the box...

btw, I'd love to see my mt2 run circles around your rusty and roost you on the track, so I can stand there and laugh in your face.... imature little ****

Damn you guys talk a lot of smack. I don't own a 4-tec. But, i do own 2 Revos. 1 with the 3.3 and the other with the OS18TM. As for the difference i see in these 2 engines. The 3.3 has better top end. But they both seem to have the same low end. As for tunning. Hands down goes to the OS18. I never have to touch the needles on that thing. Plus i have personally temped 1 at 420 degrees and it was still running. The 3.3 i always have to adjust the needles right when i first start it up. Than it will hold a decent tune.

I do believe that the 3.3 4-tec will hit 70+. Traxxas says it will do that in 3 seconds. I doubt that. Not because of the motor. But, because of the tires. Maybe with some foams it will do it in 3 seconds.

Pburlic, I'll cruise up there for some drag racing. I was running mine tonight and the ground was sooo cold that i was spinning all 4 tires for at least 20 feet. What type of tires do you run?
