Nitro Stadium Truck

[Mr_C]

I’d like a Nitro Stadium Truck, and have been looking at a HPi Firestorm and HPi MT-2. The obvious difference is one is 2wd the other is 4wd. It’s only for messing about on the street and on the park so I don’t think the 4wd is that important, I’d rather have the extra speed of a 2wd due to less transmission drag. Which would you guys recommend and are there any other cars that you’d recommend instead? I like HPi stuff as it’s always seemed will made but I’ll try others. My budget is around £200.

This will be my 1st Nitro car, though I’ve had lots of electric cars in the past, from very quick touring cars to buggys.

thanks

Thanks mate

Reading the spec it looks like they both have the same engine, so I'd just presumed the 2wd would be quicker?

Also, does anyone have any recommendations for where to purchase one from? I only live about ten mins drive from the importer but don't think you can buy direct from them.

Mirage RC Enterprises are the importer, based in Swadlincote, Derbys.

I'd like to buy it local if poss so I can get the support from the shop as/when I break or upgrade it.

Thinking of going for the 2wd one (50 quid cheaper...).

Oh, my o/h has said she'll buy it me for crimbo, result!
