Default RE: Official HPI Hellfire Thread

Hello everyone,

I just purchased a Hellfire from a local guy via Craigslist. It's used, but in decent shape with a few hop ups. Here is what it came with: Hellfire kit, Ofna Picco .26, RB pipe, graphite upper deck, front and rear aluminum braces, and thicker shock towers front and rear. It also came with a decent JR steering servo, stock HPI Rx/Tx from a savage, 2 bodies, and an Ofna 1/8 scale bag to transport it. The only thing it needed was the radio cover as it was broken. I ordered it from stormer for $14. The engine has a new pullstart and plenty of compression left. I paid $270 for it.

I thought it was a good deal so I jumped on it. I'm in the process of tearing it down to give it a good cleaning and inspection before running it this weekend. I plan on putting in an Axial engine in it if this engine isn't good or enough.

Pictures will be posted as a before and after once I finish with it.

Thanks,
Joe

PS
My son has a Revo 2.5 that we bash with. How will my Hellfire compare speed wise, to his Revo?
