RE: guidence
I would not buy it personally... too over rated and over priced....
I would go with a XTM 457 Pro or an STS... before I would touch the HPI
I personally am an XTM engine man.... but the STS .28 is a screamer of an engine
The XTM 457 Pro is basically an LRP Spec 3 with whole bunches of sick power..
Not to mention that XTM and STS rebuilds are just a little over 50% of what it takes to rebuild an HPI, and parts are ALOT CHEAPER
