I dont get it.... Why does it suck?:neutral:

Hot Racing stealing an FLM product...

Technically it's a Stampede Project design... or is that Tony?

I wouldn't worry too much, the SPV2 looks like a better product, not too mention the trans would stick out of the HR and break very quickly.

I need to finish building my SPV2 rig.

Stampede Project = Tony...

Hole spacing looks identical so don't see why the trans would stick out of HR chassis. HR even includes a roof pannel.

I just think blatent copies are sucky...

I like the copy better.............:gasp:

Although the are a few slight variances that I see between the two.

I see now. The captions you added make more sense.

And yea... They suck! I hate copycats. Although, its not really exactly alike. Just very very similar.

It makes me wonder how many other products are copied...

Imitation is the greatest form of flattery... :whistle:

Well, at least it wasnt Integy who done the dirty on FLM...

I know integy had a version of the supermaxx race suspension, the type 3

The "windshield" angle appears MUCH steeper, and if you mount the tranny with the spur forward it would stick out. Which rules out running it with a dig setup for shafties.

I'll stick with my now "OG" SPV2.

If you look close it is actually at a shallower angle and would provide more protection... It is deceptive with the rake on the window line on the side panel. The windscreen actually slopes to the front shock mounts.

I'm not changing my spv2 either... Although its already been handed down to my son and I have a Havok Berg.

Nice, my eyes were tricked.

Yup all you have to do is change a product 10% to be able to market it as your own work. It sux for FLM because they have more R-D vested and the other company just did enough changes to get rights to produce....Though I do agree it looks better
