Default RE: HPI nitro rush

well i won the auction! $91 shipped for the rush. my bro said he changed his mind said he dont wanna get buried in the spending of owning a nitro (i told him nitro was like a disease and once you get started you spend lostsa cash) so i got me another rush on the way! im pretty excited to run it although i gotta break it in yet cuz the motor is new. which brings up my next question... how do you break in an hpi nitro star engine? any special methods? its cold here too so im assuming im gunna have to use the sock on the cooling head method. where can i find out the factory carb settings and break in procedure? lookin forward to seein how this lil thing holds out against my 2.5r heavily modified ultra wide maxx any guesses whicll win guys? ill post which one does when i get the rush broke in. heres some pics of the maxx. the hpi has a tuned pipe but otherwise is stock except the newer nitro star t .15 motor. th maxx has a ths racing exhaust FOC tranny and a revo clutch and spur gear for speed components.
