From the pics, the Hellfire has a short wheel base. I don't think it will compare well to the LSP.

the hellfire has a longer wheelbase than both the savage and a 1/8 buggy. but it does seem shorter than you'd think.

The wheelbase on the Hellfire will be a drawback, IMO. It's not much longer than a buggy. I like the looks of the Jammin truggy, at this point.

Ive got the SUT pro(hybridstones to be exact) and can say its head over heals better than the RTR, kills the dom but falls short of the LSP on all but the shortest and tightest of tracks.I have yet to see a X5 survive a race first hand but its mighty quick untill those center CVDs give.I was looking at Don Ropceans 7.5 truggy last weekend and he says its very unreliable.
I also saw a rock concepts savage and all I can say is whoally sh@t that thing moves it seems a little nose heavy but the driver was pounding the crap out of it and it seemed it stayed on all fours no matter what.whoever driving this truck at the WCORCS final In quesnel and your reading this Ive never been more impressed with a standard mt.

nothig could kill my dom. in drag races it goes so fast that if a brake too hard it clamps on the brakes and skids for so long. also, when i crank the gas from a standstill, it can burnout or it can wheelie! not many guys near me have rc nitros ot rcs at all, one guy with a tmaxx, one with a revo and one witha monster pirate. my dom is the ULTIMATE truggy. and you can scheck out the rock concepts at rockconepts.net my dom is my baby, but i drive it hard because whats the use of owning one if you can't burn rubber with it?

X5 w/Native arms or HB LSP are the two best truggs right now IMO! I haven't seen any Xray converts yet but I'll bet their awesome too. I haven't seen any reliabilty issues with X5's around my area. Pretty funny how people can vote for the HPI truck when it's not even available yet. Makes you realize how many kids are on this site!

Ummm Drag racing? try racing on a track...Wheelies, burnouts and stopping on a parking is nothing that tells me anything about a truck meant to race on a off road, DIRT TRACK with JUMPS.

the dominator is old and well just can not keep up. My Mammoth ST was doing very well, beating every LSP only losing to a crazy buggy racer with a converted Mugen X5

that wasn't all on the pavement. it can do it all on the track, too..... and it can not only keep up, but it destroys my competition. also, nice to hear of someone with a mammoth who likes it. it may be old, but i love it...

Can we see some naked pictures of yours?

And I'm thinking of getting a Kyosho MP777 SP2 with the Mugen conversion [kyosho mooogen baby!?! O_O!] -- Good to hear the MBX-5Ts are fast.

Yea the Hellfire is the best. I haven't seen one or driven one yet but I know it is the best. Hell the truck hasn't even been released but it is the best truck in the world. GO HPI.





I hope you guys pick up on my sarcasm.
