got a feeling that Hellfire will be no different from MT2.
the general built is almost the same except for the size, engine and adjustable suspension which MT2 does not have.

if anyone comes across a store or a website selling the Hellfire Kit, feel free to post the info on here. Not really looking for the RTR and any head start i can get on getting my grubby paws on a kit is a bonus.

They are only available currently as RTR. I spoke to HPI about it, and they said a kit version will be released sometimes down the road (not sure how long) but probably won't be any time soon though.

We still got one more left in the shop after filling all the pre-orders. Good thing is that parts are already in stock, so replacement parts should not be a problem at all

well i would go for the savage 4.6 ss wichi have and im happy with i personally wouldnt go with the hellfire or the X because the X just has lower cg easy access diffs and some other crap wich u can do the exact same mods to ur normal savage for half the price AND have a BIGGER ENGINE if u got the 4.6 SS kit and the hellfire would probably be a good racer because its got a .28 in it but i dont think it can withstand jumps n stuff


just my 2 cents......

hpi made the hellfire to withstand anything the racetrack can throw at it. it can be bashed around. it prob doesnt have the durability of the savage but it will hold its own

i am in singapore.
have not seen anyone play Hellfire down here yet.

on paper, i do admit...the truck can do wonders...
