Anyone had any experience with these engines? TrackStar SEG-H-28, has mixed reviews on HK but looks to be a copy of a Novarossi engine. https://hobbyking.com/en_us/trackstar-seg-h-28-two-stroke-glow-racing-engine-for-car.html?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=google_gb_shopping&countrycode=GB&gclid=Cj0KCQjw59n8BRD2ARIsAAmgPmI_TPlfRIBClOtE5NDtpjT1VA5rz-0a2XMewwHKeouQXiH6wP7ym3EaAhQ0EALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

Hi all, So I bought a second hand Hyper 7 as a first buggy for my son and I to race at our local club. Turns out the engine is toast! It was very cheep so I didn't expect much as I really just wanted a rolling chassis anyway. I have got the buggy all setup so now I'm in the market for a power plant for it. My thoughts are that I should look to buy a decent race engine that I can later transplant into another buggy when we upgrade in the future. I'm not looking to brake the back here, say around £200ish? Ideally something that has a pull start, but I can maybe removed later and replaced with a blanking plate later when we have a starter box. Or maybe the best way to go is fairly cheep for now and just keep the Hyper 7 and whatever engine we get for bashing or a spare track car? Any engine suggestion's are very welcome , I just want something reliable and easy to tune. Thanks, Joe

Hi Lorry, its now £30 for the year and £12 for a practice session. they let my son and I have a few free track days down there to see if we liked it before we joined. I'm not certain on this, but I think if you already have insurance then you can just book a track day pay your £12 and race.

Hello all, just signed up because I'm new to R/C cars looking to get into club racing with my son. We are lucky that a fantastic R/C race track has recently opened up just a few miles down the road form us (nemo raceway) Anyway have just bought a second hand nitro Hyper 7 buggy and really enjoying getting to grips with it. Cheers, Joe
