Hellfire questions
I have a couple of questions about the hellfire maybe a csr from HPI can answer.
Is the 599 price going to stay? Or is this going to come down some? 600 is a little steep for me and will probably keep me from purchasing it. If it were a 100 bucks cheaper id probably get it.
Also is this going to come in a kit without a radio and engine?
Id ultimatly like to buy the kit without the motor and radio. I want to add my own engine to this in a kit form. Id like to see this truck treated like the R40. Seems like a competition type truck. Be nice to get the bare kit and add my own goodies in it.
Thanks
Stan

RE: Hellfire questions
as far as i can see, it comes with the 4.6 and the radio. the 4.6 is pretty powerful, dont even worry about changing it. the 600 will go down soon, as the company tends to put a high msrp price tag. the savy 4.6 is already down to 360, so i wouldnt worry bout it. just my 2c

HPI is going to have RTR and Kit versions of the Hellfire.

The rumor is that the kit will arrive about a month from now. HPI just released some option parts for the truck, so I would expect the full on kit to show up soon.
