Thanks for the message bb

Sorry, but we don't have any more laying around. We're thinking about getting back into them, but I'm not sure when. I'm guessing 3 to 6 months. Just too many other "irons in the fire" right now.

Take care,
Jeff

Default nitro motors

hey jeff
are you guys going to be doing any big blocks in the nitro end again?
i have 2 fr27 '05 they run strong after a single rebuild on each and
if you guys still had a engine out that was up there like a 27-32 size i would not own all these axials, i prefer the fantom over the axial any day
hope you guys dip back into it,i think i have to many of the other brand and there customer support is shotty,

joe

I use to run the Fantom .21 a well great engine great raw power, Im still running the Fantom works pipe on the car at the moment.



There would be a market for a pipe that lets you run a .21.28 in a 1/10th chassis as a pipe is hard to come by this is your MGT monster Truck pipe in a Schumacher fusion.



This one above is a Fantom Works pipe i modded from a Savage and cut in down then tig welded it back together, worked like a charm short and fat gave the 21 a new lease of life as you can see by the pic below the size difference from the original pipe.


Great product the Fantom steel pipe and the sound and little more performance was noticeable.

Hey Joe,

Thanks for the post.

We're thinking about it, but right now we are mainly concentrating on our brushless motors and lipo batteries. If we do get back into nitro it probably won't be until next summer.

Take care,
Jeff
