allow for better fuel / air transfer through the larger transfer ports.
28.5cc
CAT 5 Race Ported GP290 version 2 Chrome Engine Upgrade / Motor Swap - With this engine option, we remove your
stock engine and replace it with the CAT 5 Mfg Race Ported GP290. This
engine has had the port timing of the intake and exhaust ports adjusted
to get more horsepower and higher RPM's than a stock GP290. The
transfer ports have been enlarged and reshaped to allow for better
delivery of fuel / air mixture to the combustion chamber. The top of
the piston has been modified to resist lean siezures. This engine is
rated at 4.25 hp. This is an excellent motor option for the person who
really likes to go fast. (This engine is also available with an
optional lightened piston. For details on the lightened piston option,

This motor that
features a Zenoah 36mm 4-bolt cylinder mounted onto the F270 crankcase.
The Zenoah cylinder is used on this motor due to the high quality
cylinder plating and the F270 crankcase is used because of it's large
transfer port openings. The cylinder ports have been modified,
reshaped, and enlarged for greater performance. The cylinder and
crankcase have been port-match machined for optimal fuel / air
delivery. This allows for larger transfer ports for smoother delivery
of fuel & air to the combustion chamber. This engine has a 2mm
stroker crankshaft. The top of the piston has been turned down &
smoothed on a lathe for proper squish clearance at TDC without stacking
gaskets. The ring groove has been modified (releaved) to resist lean
seizures due to piston head expansion. This motor is rated at 4.5+ HP.
This engine has brutal bottom-end torque with good top RPM. Engine
comes with WT-668 carb and clutch with 8,000 RPM spring. ***Due to the high compression of this engine, you MUST
use 91+ octane gasoline or racing fuel up to 116 octane.*** (This
engine is also available with an optional lightened piston. For details
on the lightened piston option, call our shop at 219-253-8356.)

Stroker CY Chrome Engine Upgrade / Motor Swap - With this engine option, we remove your
stock engine and replace it with the CY 30.5cc Stroker Chrome
Engine. The 30.5cc stroker engine is known for its bottom-end torque.
The stroker crankshaft in this engine increases the piston travel by 2mm
giving the engine a longer power stroke. The only drawback to a longer
stroke crankshaft is a reduction in top RPM's. This engine works great
in vehicles with large / oversized tires. For top speed performance,
you should choose an engine with a standard stroke crankshaft and a race
ported head. This engine is rated at 3.75 hp.

drawback to a longer stroke crankshaft is a reduction in top RPM's.
However, this engine has had the intake and exhaust ports modified to
help with RPM's. This engine works great in vehicles with large /
oversized tires. For top speed performance, you should choose an engine
with a standard stroke crankshaft and a race ported head. This engine

From HPI Racing is the Baja 5T, a ready-to-run
(RTR) with 2.4 Radio 1/5th scale off-road truck that expands on the
award-winning Baja 5B family. With the Baja 5T you get aggressive desert
truck looks, high performance new features, and compatibility with many
of the existing Baja 5B spare parts and option parts, wrapped up in a
RTR package that gets you running in just a few minutes.
The Baja 5T was inspired by the latest generation of desert trucks
that compete in the world famous Baja 1000 race in Mexico. The body was
built for a perfect fit on the Baja 5T chassis, with sculpted fenders,
scoops, louvers, and an integrated roll cage for authentic desert-tough
looks. In true HPI RTR form, the body is completely ready to go right
out the box... painted, mounted, pre-applied racing decals and tinted
windows. Factor in the front skid plate bumper, Desert Buster tires
mounted on Outlaw truck wheels with real bead locks, and you've got a
truck that looks like it just rolled off the starting line in Ensenada.
Keeping the body securely attached is a completely new body mounting
system with tough nylon construction, 8 mounting points to distribute
the stress on the body, and fully adjustable for compatibility. A front
skid plate bumper protects the truck on big jumps, now with 4 headlights
for realistic desert truck looks. A molded nylon rear spoiler is
included for off-road stability, with an integrated rear body brace for
extra strength. The sides of the truck are protected by new guards that
deflect dirt and debris away from the chassis. The engine also receives
dirt guards on both sides for extra protection.
But the Baja 5T goes way beyond looks, under the skin is a tough
truck with the power to mow down anything in its path. Power comes from a
massive 26cc gasoline engine, delivering rock solid performance, easy
tuning and run times of more than 30 minutes on a single tank. The high
performance 8,000 RPM clutch and new high flow muffler give the Baja 5T
the power to launch with a roost of desert dirt on the way to a
screaming top speed of more than 40 MPH.
The included TF-10 radio system is FM for excellent range and
includes an adjustable failsafe system for extra protection. The
SFL-10MG2 steering servo is a massive unit for quick steering and lots
of torque. Standard equipment includes a new higher capacity 3000mah
NiMH rechargeable receiver pack and an AC charger. The radio system is
protected by a sealed housing with an external charging jack, and both
servos are water resistant designs that allow the Baja 5T to be driven
in extreme off-road conditions.
For improved handling, the Baja 5T rear shock tower has been modified
for increased rear suspension travel. All four shock absorbers have
thick diameter shafts for extra durability. The VVC/HD shocks are tuned
for smooth suspension dampening to help soak up the desert terrain. The
innovative design of the Baja 5T includes a rigid 4mm aluminum alloy
chassis for extreme durability.
So get ready to take on the desert with the giant new 1/5th scale
Baja 5T truck. It's got the look, it's got the power, and it's built
tough to take the punishment of off-road action.
