Introducing the HPI Firestorm 2WD RTR stadium truck! This amazing 2WD stadium truck features all-new design specifications, cool racing attributes and a fresh direction for HPI's high quality entry level nitro truck line-up!
Superb Design Heritage
Designer Erik Shauver put all his design experience from designing HPI's high performance cars, like the Hellfire and the Pro 4, into the Firestorm. It combines the latest advances in RC racing truck technology and suspension design to set a new benchmark in 2WD stadium trucks.
In the HPI line up the Firestorm replaces the hugely popular HPI Nitro Rush with a big performance increase at about the same price.
It's easy to spot the Firestorm's design heritage from the Hellfire in the sleek black look, the subdued chassis anodizing, and the smart and efficient layout. Many design features of the high spec Hellfire have been carried over - from the black upper deck, the complete set of hex screws, the captured hinge pins front and rear, and the next-level suspension design and layout!
HPI thought of everything when it came to remaking the 2WD stadium truck. You get a huge power increase from a new, stronger pullstart G3.0 engine and an all-new chassis design to bring racing like performance to a rock solid entry level truck.
The Firestorm is pre-assembled right out of the box - from the factory-fitted radio gear and G3.0 engine to the painted and trimmed desert truck racer bodyshell! The reliable HPI TF-1 AM radio system provides all the control you'll need.
Required to complete, Standard nitro starter kit & 12AA batteries.

If this is your first Nitro car, please read:
Purchasing a Nitro powered RC car is not to be taken lightly.
Firstly they are aimed at ages of 16 and over. Nitro power cars are very high perfomance and because of this they require a lot of maintenance, from cleaning to checking all nuts and bolts. If these regular checks are not carried out your nitro car will soon fall apart. Look after your car and the rewards are great, you`ll have a car that is fast and relialble and you won`t have to charge it up. If this is your first car and you dont have an experienced friend to help you we do not recommend buying one mail order, as we tell all first time customers they should expect and least one return visit to our shop for help, which we are happy to give.
