RE: HPI MT2 Vs. XTM X-Cellerator

i do agree that there is way too much emphasis on top speed. that just about never matters... my **** could go 150 mph for all i care, if it doesn't hook coming out of a turn it's useless.

RE: HPI MT2 Vs. XTM X-Cellerator

RE: HPI MT2

the shimming thing does work, the gears sound a little noisy at first but after they heat up they get a good wear pattern going and quiet down quite a bit.

RE: Hop ups

RE: HPI MT2

it definitely happened to mine. HPI claimed to fix the problem by going back to machined gears but the ones i got were regular cast pieces.

RE: HPI MT2

RE: Shocks on mt2
