E-Hellfire?...and a question about normal Hellfire
I'll ask this first, the Hellfire (and Traxxas Revo) look like 1/8 4WD Stadium Trucks to me...lower stance and all. Are they really Monster Trucks (since that's how they seem to be classified)? How do RC trucks get classified? The Hellfire really looks like a ST to me. Can they clear the same obstacles that the Savage and other MTs can? They don't seem to have as much ground clearance.
Now to the main question - with the upcoming release of the Traxxas E-Revo, what do you guys think the chance is for an E-Hellfire to compete? I'd love an E-Hellfire with the E-Savage twin-550 setup or an E-Hellfire Flux Brushless. I'm personally a HPI fan, so would prefer an E-Hellfire over an E-Revo, but if there's no chance for one, the E-Revo might be the first Traxxas I pick up. Also, it'd be nice if HPI made the E-Hellfire larger like Traxxas did to the E-Revo (it's almost 23" long!!!).
I emailed HPI about my interest for an E-Hellfire, but got no response.
Thanks.
