Due to my incredible talent and ingenuity (and some help from Doug) Its as near finished as it will ever be :)

Looks nice ZIggs, but when did you give your Hyper a name? :lol:

Shortly after i got her :)

Same as above but why Haz??? :huh:

H - Hyper

A - Dunno

Z - Sum1 said hyper Zeven :) no seven so thats how :P

haz the hyper?

YUP :)

ziggy .... ure attempt at attaching the pipe to the elbow is feeble ... i got my pie in about 3 cm more than u

cos im a brute...... holding a hairdryer :P

Cew - yah know this distance thing actually affects the performance of the engine :)

Might minute difference

Shorter the pipe/narrower The more Higher end power you get

The longer the distance - the more lower end power as it causes sumet lower pulses

Ask Martin - he's the 1 who expland it to me orignally :)

Keeping it simple :) as the more complicated it gets - the more i break it :D

hence why Cew thinks diff oils aren't hop up

they are cause they change the characteristics of the car :P

It wont fly off rofl

Engine is Secured in

The Manifold dont move

And the exhaust is secured to the chassis :)

I lost the hook thing - and kept driving - they dont fall off :)

to be honest!

rex-x's aren't very good.

they are easy to break! my mate has one and he has gone though alot of parts!

rcmadness :ph34r:

to be honest my car has had quite alot of prangs some major but it held up well

not broke much at all think your mate must have got the runt of the batch

i think it is quite a strong buggy had mine for nearly 2 years
