Has anyone tried to put HPI's 3-speed transmission or even a 2-speed in the Hellfire. I was talking about that with some of my friends today who have a Hellfire. I still haven't picked one up because Traxxas just announced the 3.3 engine for the Revo and want to know if they are going to have a 3.3 Jato. Grant it the Hellfire is nothing but torque, I've seen one race a Jato, off the line the Hellfire showed the power, but once they started going the Jato caught up and passed him. So what have some of you experienced who have tried or thought about trying to make that mod? Personally I like HPI more than Traxxas, but I want to get an off road racer that has low end power, but also can put out in the top end of things. Thanks.
