I believe that OFNA makes the DM1 pro......if I remember correctly it's 1/7 scale not 1/8th but that could be an advantage.

I have seen the OFNA DM1 and Hyper One Seven, but they are huge and would require more expensive equipment (or maybe not, weight of nitro rtr is 4.1kg).
Has anyone seen a inferno gt or heard anything about it. It looks like a compromise between a road car and a buggy, which is good for me, plus it is cheaper than the other 1/8 road cars.
Also, what about the OFNA ultra GTP, which I assume is their answer to the kyosho inferno gt.

I have decided on the Inferno GT over the OFNA ultra GTP.
I plan on putting in a MM ESC with a feigao 7XL on 4S trakpower lipo.
I also plan on swapping out the two speed tranny with a center differential.

With this setup, running 4.2 inch ofna rims and tires, and gearing of 44/16, BrianG's speed calculator gives me a top speed of 48 mph, with what i assume is pretty conservative gearing for something this size and weight.

This is plenty of speed for onroad bashing, plus I assume I can gear up for higher speed if I wish. Does anyone see any problems with this setup?

Weight should be around 8.5-9 lbs.
