Hpi Mt2 Ss
I saw in the new RCCA (September) that HPI is going to make a kit version of the MT2. It will be the SS and it will have a .18ss motor and other upgrades. Has anyone else seen anything. There is nothing on the HPI webstie... that I have seen.
Current MT2 owners what do you think of your truck?
I want to build another kit and I would like to learn more about the MT2 SS. That way I could compare it to the upcomming OFNA Blazer SST (which I figure will be available in a kit shortly after the RTR comes out....)
Thanks!

Don't ya hate it when they show something in a magazine that ya gotta have and it's no where to be found? You would think HPI's website would have something about the MT2 SS!
I have an MT2 and Cannot leave well enough alone!
Broke-in the T-15 engine, runs great, idles forever. so so power.
I run only on the street so I did the following.
I installed a TRX 2.5 with dynamite hard anodized T-Maxx header and pipe. It fits perfect.
I also installed the HPI 2 speed for the MT. WHOA! Tallk about fast!! With the stock tires it gets pretty squirley at the top end, so I installed a set of HPI 2.2 truck On Road tires. It lowered the C.G. and lost a touch on the top speed due to the lower profile of the tires but it is still stupid fast!
I also installed HPI purple extra firm springs to keep the rear from coming around on turns.
