I own a Dominator, giant nitro truck by Hobao based on a hyper 10 with huge wheels
Similar to an OFNA Blazer SST I think

The dominator was a race version of the monster pirate, which was based on the 9.5 I think. The blazer sst was first based on the ultra gt in the 90's (the one I have) then was based on the ultra comp a couple years ago.

Trinity or Paragon used to make a motor spray called Hole Shot. It gave you about a 3-4 second motor boost to try and gain the "Hole Shot". Not sure if it's still around. probably illegal at a sanctioned level if it is. Pretty sure it was Trinity. paragon just made motor spray and bath if I remember right. I don't think they're around anymore. Paragon made some pretty cool t-shirts though.

I was thinking (and I'm sure scr8p was too) of the original Dominator, the Custom Works 4wd oval Dominator.

Didn't know there was another one. How many vehicles have been named the same as another one? Wait nevermind that should be saved for another thread.

Maybe it's just the pic but it looks long.

Looks pretty cool though, are they vintage or new?

They look like pretty nice cars. Are they pretty expensive?
