| Hello!
Does any body else have problems getting parts from HPI!? I love my new HPI, but it seems like it's very difficult to get parts for these things..
P.S. Is it true that they are getting worse with quality? If it is, I wish I knew this before I bought it! |

| Finally, I just went on hpi's website for my 4.6 trophy truggy and they have a whopping 8 repalcement parts for my truggy! Of course they don't show my wheels yet... Damn dog and his craving for rc tires! |

| I gave up on HPI long ago. I found the plastic they used in their parts was not durable compared to the other big brands. Plus I was always drop shipping parts to my door to keep the stuff running. Its not always fun to run what everyone else is running, but it is nice to be able to get parts in most hobby shops. |
