Thanks , will have a look at all that . Only had it a couple of days , but already wish it was quicker :-)

Thanks , will check out modelsport , and try some research on the motor pinion options

Santa brought me a tamiya Neo Scorcher but I would like to upgrade some of the plastic bits. I have been advised that a ball race kit , an aluminium prop and cups , and metal diffs from a TT01 e would be a decent start. Is ebay the best place to look for stuff like that , or can anyone recommend somewhere specifically that I could try?(is it worth posting on the wanted section here?) Also , what would be the next step to make it quicker for the least amount of money ? Motor or lipo batteries? I mainly intend to bash this round a bmx track , if that had any bearing Cheers in advance for any help/advice

Not quite got the hang of how to reply on this forum . Thanks for the info, I will see if anyone can help with part nos and links :-)

Excellent, Would you recommend anywhere in particular to get these bits and pieces . And any idea what I should be paying. I aim to get them ordered straight away so I have them when I need them. Thanks for the info - appreciate it !

Thanks for all help and advice. Local bmx track was the venue and throttle was soon at maximum - I am amazed at how quickly he got the hang of it. Seems like quite a sturdy little thing - talking of which my dad bought me a tamiya Neo scorcher so I can get some racing done with the boy. It does not seem nearly as sturdy , with much more plastic - I guess I will soon be replacing parts on this one. On top of this, I got a rush of blood to the head and bought a nitro hyper 7 from ebay - it looks like a different beast altogether :-) I seem to have joined the rc ranks now

For some reason my 'thumbs up ' emoji shows as 4? Marks

Nice one , Will get fuel ordered today. Cheers for all the advice so far ????

So , I have bought a hyper 7 tq2 from ebay. Guy says it is immaculate , having only been run for a maximum of an hour. 1st questions are - what fuel do I order ? And should I do the break in procedure - don't get the impression that the previous owner did this . Any other tips that I should definitely do/not do , bearing in mind that I have zero experience. Excited to be soon joining the nitro ranks ! Should be with me in a few days time :-)

Thanks for all of the info ! I am definitely going to go for a hyper 7 and now it's just a case of finding something at my budget. Daft newbie question - is the tick on the top right a 'like' button ? Do I press it if I liked the answer or comment ?

Is the Ofna hyper 7 and the hobao hyper 7 the same car?

This still for sale ?
