Steering !!!! You do not need to make any mods for steering. Also, the truck has 16mm big bore shocks that eat up the rough stuff. The TTR ST-1 is an awesome truck that is durable as hell. If TTR ever works out their steering problems, it will no doubt be one of the top trucks ever. I'm hoping my Hyper is as tough as my ST-1.

I am currently running in a state invitational race as we speak. We ran the quals today and will be running the main tomorrow. The Hyper ST is running like a champ.

I'm running 7/10/3 in my diffs. I ran this truck all weekend in a State Invitational Race. The truck handled the rough sections and really turnswell. I made to the B main in the Arena Truck, but broke about five minutes into the race. I had a screw back out on my steering knuckle. That was my fault. I should have uded loc-tite.

A longer screw will not fit. It will hit the front axle. I am going to use loc-tite and then put some gasket sealant on the outside and smooth it out. It will keep screw in place if it trys to back out. If you need to replace screw, you can just peel off sealant. I used this method on my Cen Matrix Pro buggy knuckles.

How are these Hyper ST Pro's holding up after a bit of use?
Are they competitive with other truggy's?
