Default RE: Horsepower and other stuff info about the hpi baja sc please.

All HPI baja are very similar and use many of the same parts. I have been running my 5b for over 3 years with many a gallon on it and never stripped a spur gear and I beat the hell out of mine. I do not like metal spurs because rotating weight is a big HP eater. How long the tires last has a lot to do with what surface you run on. A stock 26cc is about 2.5 with stock can or poor SS pipe to maybe 3hp with a good pipe if that. On CY web site they say max power 2.6.
