Thanks kinda what I thought, but it seemed like overkill judging from the small amount of pressure coming through there.
Has anybody had trouble getting fuel? I have a hard time priming & seems I get a lot of air.

Thanks for the reply.

It also helps prevent a lean bog condition after a pitstop.

It's to prevent lean bog after re-fueling.

I drove this new car over the weekend, and must say....im sold. Car handled unbelievably the only thing more surprising is how cheap the car is. Alot of the local guys at my track put it down because it gets an "economy" level tag, but I like it, and will be likely picking one up.

Turmoils take 1st and 2nd about 8in. apart at Glitchers RC Firecracker cash race.
The Sportwerks Prototype Arena Truck also took the win in the UMT class.

So far we have had no issues at all with the Turmoils.

Troy good to see you and Derek again, congrats to you both. Glitchers was a good time. To bad the turnout was a little off. I did walk away with a 4th place finish and some fuel. Thanks for the juice! Me and Doug had a fun time for the last 10min, what was his last name as I don't think I have met him before.

See ya at round 2

Doug Richter, He has been running pretty well at Hardesty's so far this summer. It was great to get to race with you again. Too bad we are soo far apart to get to race more often.

Troy, could you please post Derek's setup from Glitchers? I'm trying to get some more low-speed steering out of the car while trying to plant the rear on-power. I'm in the middle of rebuilding the car just to clean it, so the timing would be perfect. Thanks.
