My first truck was the Electric evader ST. Good truck. Not very durable though IMO.

I've seen the nitro version, good truck.

I know this is most likely an unfair comparison but anyone know how the Evader ST fair against a T4 or XXX-T in a race?? I am trying to recomend a good Stadium racer to a friend that is just getting into the hobby. I don't want him to be out classed when he races with the other guys who run all Losi and Associated.

Any help would be great...

Hi,

A little off topic, but there is a place called Brantford Motorsports in Brantford on Lynden Road, behind Galaxy Car Wash. I do the ordering for them. Currently they have some HPI instock, Savage Special Edition, Savage X, Savage 25, Hellfire, MT2, RS3, Mini. Also can order Team Associated and CEN products. Can also order Axial engines, but don't have these instock in the store.

Its a new store, and are still learning about R/C.

It would be nice to have a track in Brantford somewhere. Or even a organized spot for bashing.

Yes eventually we will get more parts. I am trying to line up some parts as we go along. Possibly will carry Kyosho in the future as well.

Just sold the first mt2, tried starting it for the customer, after minor cranking with the rotostart (under 5 seconds each), it would only turn the engine about a 3/4 turn back/forth! I took the mt2 home in the evening and checked the engine, it had a broken bearing in the piston pin, and a bent shaft! Hpi is replacing it for free and stated they had a bad batch of the 1st mt2 engines.

Also sold the HPI RS4 evo, unfortunately the client smashed it the next day though, so is now getting some parts for it.
