Drifting - Nitro 3 Drift RTR vs RS4 EVO+ RTR

What is the best out of these for drifting?

-> Nitro 3 Drift RTR vs RS4 Evo+ RTR

RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread

Yes its been a while...we have had a bad winter down here in NZ (when I say bad = lots of rain, we don't get snow where I live!) and that has meant little time for the nitro's.
However, summer is...

RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread

I run the stock O.S. filter with an outer foam element from Ofna. Looks almost exactly the same as your setup...the outer filter foam just tends to extend the life of the inner element.

RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread

Personally, I would recommend a Savage!
I have an X-SS (kit version) and it is awesome! Totally durable, quick and great for just about anything...
X RTR w/4.6 looks pretty good as well.

RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread

Hellfire is 1/8 scale, MT2 is 1/10.
Hellfire is a TRUGGY (buggy-truck hybrid) and also has a centre diff. It has a larger .28cu motor and is quite rugged.
Ideally the hellfire is designed more...

RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread

To be quite honest, it would look a bit ridiculous though. I have a Savage and the body is massive compared to the MT2's body.

Better off checking out Proline's range for 1:10 scale:

RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread

46u - did you do any fuel tank mods on your Sav? I've just ordered an Ofna tank for mine as I am finding the half-lean issue quite a problem with the 160cc stock tank.
One other Q - did you run...

RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread

Pretty sure .12 is for 2WD 1/10 ie like an Associated GT2 or something like that. I believe there are 'outlaw' classes for .18...however rules depend on where you are and where you race.
