Any Hellfire owners? - 02-06-2007, 06:51 PM

Just curious if there are any other Hellfire owners who race at Leisure Hours. If so, what does your set up look like, what engine are you running, stuff like that? If you race a Hellfire, post up!

Racing from a roll is like beating off, it may be fun but its not the real thing.

Bummer. I was curious as to what kind of setup would work best for the particular track. I'm brand new to the racing thing so not sure where to start. One thing I would like is a new engine for it. Any suggestions?

Well, hopefully I'll be able to keep it in one piece, lol. Like I said before, I'm going to want to upgrade the engine and was just curious what people are running and what works on the track. Any suggestions are appreciated.

You dont get banned for using the word hellfire. Its just on auto correct and your post is edited when you post it. Lame.

But I have seen maybe 2 there with hellfires. One is from down south and I dont know where the other guy is from.

I'd love to get a Vspec, but the ole wallet isn't quite that fat, lol. Basically, I'm looking for an engine that tunes well, is reliable, quick and affordable. I'm kind of leaning towards either an Axial .28 spec 1s or possibly a LRP z.28 Spec 3. Any other suggestions in this price range?

Thanks!
Matt
