Are you asking if the Mugen is faster than the Hyper 7 w/8 port combo? I don't really understand your question....

it is fast, but it is way more $$$. If the hyper 8 port is tuned right... thenm it will keep up there with the large $ engines. (given the right pipe, clutch shoe, spring and bell)

Good choice Savage. That mugen will rock and with the novarossi engine it will do 45mph, how do i know? i have the issuse of rc magazine where it is reviewed. The hyper 7 with a 21 8 port will give u the same speed of 45mph because i own one with that engine. But that mugen is way better then any ofna ride so gl have fun with it. Iwould have gotten a kyosho personally but that mbx5 is second on my list of buggies.

yes that is what im asking sorry if i wasnt too clear im a bit new to these forums, call me dumb but why do people put "lol" at the end of things, what does it mean?[]

Anyway everyone around here has got a hyper7 i just wanted something a bit different, also does anyone know what fuel is good for the novarossi p5 for the run in and use of it on the track. i run tornado fuel in my savage and wanted to put the same (25%)tornado) in the p5, to save on space really its a bit of a squeeze here. Only trouble is on the novarossi web site it says to use a fuel with a certain %age of oil in it. I dont know what to do is tornado a good fuel to run it in the car with or will i have to run it in on a different fuel please make any suggestions just remember, i need to get hold of the fuel easily in sunny England!![8D]

lol = laughing out loud

People use it to let you know they find something funny or they may use it after a joke.
