Truggy forums? - Mr. Tune - 02-16-2006
Are there any other truggy forums out there other than truggyracers.com? I was heading over there and checking out the hellfire section to share info with other fellow owners about this new truck. Apparently last night they decided their shouldn't be a hellfire section. Pretty sad that just because the owner of the site doesn't like the truck anymore the truck didn't deserve it's own forum.
Anyways, are they any other ones out there? One that actually has a hellfire section?

o i had some very interested chats going on with the guy in charge there about it. I wont be returning to that POS site.

What did he have to say? The only reason I had even signed up was for the hellfire. No point in going back for me.

he ended up saying dont let the door hit you on you arse when you leave and that made me choose to never go back.

I think this is the post why he doesnt have a hellfire forum. As for me in going to get a crt.

he barely even drove the truck and decided it was crap. Didnt even give it a real chance.

He'll soon find out the motor is trash ......lol
Truggy forums? - Michowski - 02-16-2006
i love that motor for when i drove it. Gotta figure out what size it is and replace the bearings with some boca's so that should fix it. If not il be putting a plus 5 in it
Truggy forums? - Tex - 02-16-2006
why not just let it blow and have HPI replace it free? I bet they already started shipping motors without the bearing trouble.
And to be clear, yes it's an awesome budget motor and runs well.
Truggy forums? - Michowski - 02-16-2006
its a 300 dollar motor from tower hobbies FYI

Looks like he re-posted a hellfire section after hpi threatened him with advertising ( I assume taking it away)
Truggy forums? - Sh1nn3r - 02-16-2006
300 bucks for an hpi motor damn thats a rip off.
Truggy forums? - Mr. Tune - 02-16-2006
I went on tower hobbies, and the k4.6HO motor was like $220. He might have been refuring to the novarossi?

The forum is re-opened...peoples opinions are exactly that...opinions.
If you don't like something, you should be entitled to say what you want.
If you don't like what others have to say...stop reading.
just my "opinion" :p:

Sorry I figured the HPI motor was a budget motor (under $200). Seems like a budget motor to me.
Truggy forums? - Michowski - 02-17-2006
my bad, I found out i saw that price directly from hpi. Must have been looking at tower at the same time and just thought it was that price. 219.99 at tower hobbies. 339.99 at hpi
Truggy forums? - Tex - 02-17-2006
That's a pretty expensive motor. You can get an RB S5 for $235 NIB
