Oookey then, anyone care to illustrate differences?
« on: August 30, 2003, 09:30:37 PM »
Between the Raging Red Fuze and the Inferno?  Lol, every time I've tried to get ahold of an Inferno, it hasn't worked.  I got as close as being within a day of sending money to somebody here for one, but I had to back out (sorry again!).  I won a couple ebay bids by mistake (the only time you don't want one to go through, you win two of them . . ), and was very thankfully bailed out, so now I have a Raging Red and a Detonator waiting to be drilled (if I choose to).  I've had a Raging Red before, and absolutely loved it.  I've seen a half million Infernos being thrown around here, and I can't get enough of the reaction they have.  What I'd like to know is if the Raging Red is close to the Inferno, cause it seems like they are pretty close, there's just something that stands out more about the Inferno.  I never have a problem with carrydown or finding dry boards, but the Raging Red didn't seem to need dry dry boards to move, it'd always start revving early and the second it hinted dry, it'd take off.  The Inferno seems a little smoother, while at the same time its reaction off the dry is very impressive.  Eh, I'm gonna quit rambling, comparisons anyone?

From their chart, the Inferno is in slot N9 and the Raging Red Fuze is in M13.  The reaction shouldn't be too different, but that's based on specs only.  Also, the Activator cover is likely to outlast the older covers.
