Who missed the REAL old school Nitro Stadium trucks? I DO!

[@toolbaggers]

My first nitro was one of the original nitro stadium trucks - a '91 Kyosho Outlaw Rampage Truck (totally different than the newer solid axle stuff.)

[@lineman1221]

Traxxas Nitro Hawk for me. Miss the early days of nitro

[@Lucas.stalcup]

Vintage RC period are bad fkn ASS, nitro GANG, 2speed baby

[@TexasHill]

My favorite was the HPI RS4-MT with a 2-speed. I didn't know anything about Nitro back then, so it was electric ⚡. Then I bought the Nitro version years later!😊

[@hybrid32494]

agree bro!! 100% agree. @@Lucas.stalcup

This RC car was my childhood. I spend so much time working with them. Nowadays, it’s the only car I collect. I have 4 Firestorms and an entire hobby shops worth of replacement parts. Right now I’m working on a project in fusion360 to fully 3-D, print a replica firestorm from scratch. I am so far designed every single component for the fire storm and right now I’m working on a new gearbox design to replace the old Firestorm gearbox that it’s hard to find. I’m also working on a conversion kit to take any firestorm and convert it to Brushless. I have a working prototype and I can do over 123 km/h right now. Eventually, I will start posting about the project and I’ll put 3d files online.

[@ramos.nitrorc]

[@hybrid32494]

thank you man!! NitroGang!!!

[@nomusicrc]

YOUR TREES ARE LOSING THEIR LEAVES ALREADY It was awesome watching that go through the leaves and do donuts I like the trail it was leaving

[@xaviersrcadventures2955]

Nice job the repair! Great Nitro too.

[@nitrorc_and_electrics101]

Always wanted a nitro rush back in the day or any nitro powered stadium truck 🛻 still one of my favourite classes of rc !!!

[@hybrid32494]

hey my friend!! how are you! Yes man, the old school HPI. nitro RUSH was great, there were several versions of them, the one this video is the very first model. Needs a new engine unfortunately, it's got low compression.

[@woogienitro]

Bro, I love the old school Nitro trucks, buggies truckies stadium trucks. Whatever you want to call them. I like them.. lol. Good stuff man! Can't wait for the next live stream

[@kikiautorcman787B]

Nitro for ever... ‼️💯🛢️🔥🏎️🏁🤓🇨🇵

[@ronfuller1256]

The good ole days, HPI! Thanks for the great content and taking us down memory lane!🎊 🎉

[@hybrid32494]

thank you man!! LQYAS HAPPY TO SEE YOU HERE. That green HPI nitro RUSH will be featured in it's own videos soon, it currently has low compression!

[@jayp9299]

I love a good street bash!

[@chardison6026]

Love the firestorm it was my first nitro and love stadium trucks … if I don’t have a lot of room or don’t wanna piss to many people off I take my firestorm…. Runs good reliable and quite

[@ryancook2887]

Love my firestorm. Probably my favourite

[@karld34]

Nitro stadium trucks are the best.

[@ryancook2887]

The clutches on the firestorm are known to be poor, a bullet spring apparently works but i opted to jam 2 shoes from a 3 shoe setup in. Had to shim the clutch nut up but now have sickening clutch engagement

[@DjgillyVW]

another awsome video!! thanks hybrid !

[@hybrid32494]

thank you man! Especially for being a channel member!! Beyond Sickening!! More on this firestorm soon!

[@kyronrc]

I have one of these and it rips!! So much fun given its RWD... These cars actually have some racing pedigree, if you Google the Mugen MST-1 from back in the day you'll see they look very similar. HPI defenitely took some inspiration from that platform...

[@hybrid32494]

hey my dude! Yes, you're totally right the Firestorm has features from the more high end HPI HellFire as well. The MST-1 is a nitro I've never had, but I'm pretty familiar with it, you're right! More on this thing soon after the clutch spring is repaired.

[@Tegridy_Rc]

Bro my favorite is the rustler because it was my first but the firestorm is definitely much better! Both electric and nitro

[@hybrid32494]

I agree bro! the nitro rustler was a top contender, and was significantly faster too. Probably as a result of gearing, plus the traxxas engines has more power than the 15fe! Sickening!

[@slick2500]

The Firestorm was my first nitro rc. My only issue with it was the lsn was in a weird spot and kind of awkward to get at. I was so sad when HPI discontinued the Firestorm and the Blitz. I literally broke the exact same stuff on mine.

[@hybrid32494]

hey my fellow nitro brother! Happy to have you here in the channel! The good thing is that nitro RC as a whole is still. around and quite good value these days when compared to electrics, for the most part. Id really suggest you look at some of the in stock nitro links in this video and you will see what I'm talking about. Nitro 4 life!

[@Mrefficientkobe]

Great video ❤nice and informative

[@hybrid32494]

thank you my dude!! This firestorm will be back with a new clutch spring and then we can go on some REAL nice runs!!

[@MaxwellBuckner]

NITRO WORLDWIDE 🌎 💥💥

[@hybrid32494]

You know it bro!! NWo!!

[@speedgears1236]

I miss the Team Associated Rc10gt 😢

[@MikeGray-ct6hb]

So I just ended up with one of those older Firestorm with the 27mhz AM radio. Couldnt figure out exactly what it was so I knew all I had to do was search your channel to find out and as usual u didn't disappoint lol. I'm currently restoring it and have a ton of questions haha. It has a hpi 3.0 motor on it, not even sure if that's the factory motor, can't wait to get this thing running again tho

[@ggwoods5684]

i miss my firestorm too op lol

[@tarekkhoury5384]

it's amazing how much work was put in to this Firestorm to revive it! Can't kill a Nitro! this 3.0 engine is a true legend. Very nice fire up, brakes and run. Engine was nicely tuned, just the clutch needs probably a replacement.

[@rcnitroflux2361]

Nice bud I got 3 off them now bud two nitros and flux

[@z-jayy8545]

Cmon take the NTC3 to the empty parking lot n open it up.. not many many videos on Ntc3 doing speed runs, let alone in good quality

[@slottygw2wvw842]

Leaves on the ground in August?

Sicking ❤queen melissa ❤hibrid🤟

thank you my dude! Melissa and I are happy to have you here! NitroGang!

[@Robertbarnette-op8ok]

@@hybrid32494 it's my pleasure to be here my dude

[@mitymike]

My first hobby grade rc was a stadium truck, rc10gt to be exact. I still have it and it screams with a Traxxas 2.5 in it😊

[@hybrid32494]

hey my dude! Yes, the classic RC10GT, the most Sickening nitro from the time period!! I have 2 of them at this point, but I'll be honest with you those complicated ball diffs seem to be pissing me off, lol! Could be due to old AGE and the system just getting loose. Im thinking of a new nitro rustler for the channel, what do you think?

[@cactus5443-]

My firestorm was the one 1/10 that i regretted selling.

[@mach389]

Looking to put a new engine in my vintage belt driven rs4. Any suggestions for a cheap drop in replacement?

[@hybrid32494]

hey buddy! I got the perfect suggestion for you. I've done a video on this same exact issue. What you need is the HPI T3.0 engine, not the G3.0. The T3.0 will be a direct drop in and you won't even need to adjust gear mesh.

[@mach389]

@@hybrid32494 should I get the engine for the supernitro I am rebuilding also? Thank you for everything

[@gilmariosouza5224]

I have one brand New on The box

[@chardison6026]

It’s the same clutch as a bullet bro by the way

[@hybrid32494]

YEs bro! thank you, I have a couple springs I could use, should be ok! I just didn't want to repair it for this video, only wanted a test run you know.

[@NoahLipinski-js1si]

Yo can never kill a nitro

[@Lucas.stalcup]

I really think someone tried to kill that nitro😢

[@lotuse420]

the heck did you hit

[@hybrid32494]

LOl! that was the prior owner! He must have hit a curb, whole thing was KILLED in the front! Typical style issue with the JATO also, too much NITRO and not enough brakes! lol.
