I do not have any gas vehicles. But im thinking about getting one.
I love the power!! the .15 or .20 What is bigger. like in electric The lower the turn the faster but what is it in gas??

ctardi

the number is refering to how much room in the cylender, so bigger = better

Richy89

so .15 is bad right?

DemonLosi

Not necesarily bad, but what r u going to be doing, racing or bashing and wut kind of car are you interested in?

ctardi

yea, .15 isnt bad for bashing, but i use a .20 for my race truck

Richy89

Well im going to get a nitro TC3. and practice at my house and in parking lots and then im going to race. So how fast would it go in a NTC3? Can you guys tech me alittle about nitro. I want to get into it. What things do i need. What is a glow plug starter? I all ready know about the gas and the nitro %`s. and now i know alittle about the size of the engine.
Well thanx.

how long does a tank last?

ctardi

It really depends on your motor and tuning, I get about 10 mins out of my .20, but its tuned a bit lean. And i get about 12 mins out of my .15, but it also a bit lean, it really depends your engine, driving style, and tuning.

corvettecrazy

and you tank size. . . a general idea is 5-15 minutes

I would reccomend an o.s. .15 chose which ever fits into the NTC3, I dont know the car so I cant tell you which specific one.

PSI Racing

If you're planning to race, you have to use a .12 engine (ROAR Rules).

Richy89

im going to race at hobby town. they have races the last sunday of evry month.

im going to have to see what their rules are.

so which motor is good the one i gave the picture for is the specs on the bottom. or is the one on the top good??

PSI Racing

Find out what your rules are first.
Both those engines are .15 engines.
It would be no use getting any of those if the rules say .12 engine only.

The NTC3 comes with a .12 that I'm sure will be plenty of power for you. It is a race legal engine, youll have to break in the engine before you can start hammering it at the track.
