The Brand New HPI Baja 5sc!

                                                                                                   

Where to start! The Baja 5sc is one of the most exiting fun to drive trophy trucks I have ever had the pleasure to drive. The 5sc is the successor to the famous Baja 5t It looks the same but it definitely is not. The main differences between the 5sc and the 5t are all the parts HPI has beefed up such as the drive shafts as you can see pictured below.
                                                                            
The truck handles very well in all conditions, wet, snow, mud, dirt, anything you can think of, it can handle. This is due to a few things, one of them being the massive power plant. This truck is powered by a 26cc Fuelie Gas engine and because of that, this 30 pound monster can propel it self up to approximately 70-75km/h or 40+mph!



                                         

Another neat feature is the Newly added skid plate for added protection, and not only that, but the entire chassis is solid metal, and the undercarriage is a solid slab of metal, not a gap in sight! This beast isn't a truck its  TANK!




On a full tank of gas you can expect to get about 40-50 min run time which is phenomenal and very efficient considering each tank only costs you about 90 cents!
I really can't get over how great this thing runs! Check out this video to see it right out of the box with the engine still breaking in------------> Baja 5sc First run.
