Just bought a HPI rush

[wildoliver]

Just bough a complete HPI rush with a few spares as a restoration job intending (he says) to sell it on afterwards.

What are they like? fun? worth selling?

Quite fun trucks, simple to build and maintain. Handle nicely; very forgiving and not overly powerful like say a Jato. Dunno what the second hand market for these things is like though, but it’s hpi so I shouldn’t imagine a problem selling at a later date.

I used to have a Rush evo, they are a 15 size engine, the Rush i think is a 12 and i would think a little under powered? The standard Evo (15size) is pretty well matched for the handling in standard form. I fitted an 18SS engine to mine and it went through gearboxes, clutches and brake disc's when used hard, and hard to keep the front end down without it slipping the clutch!!!!
Find some nice jumps and have some fun!

Turns out it is an evo as I've had the engine off to fix the pull start and it's a 15!
