TOPS why no sound in your video? Looks like a new camera guy around the 6:00 mark. LOL. Thanx for posting that.

I loved the Action RC track at the RC Pro race. Did they get the back right corner built back up yet? I was surprised how many feet of the corner was straight up gone by the time the A-mains came around. That layout is a lot of fun.

Well the part of the track I was referring to was the back right corner. The very North West corner where the short drop-off is. All 200+ cars really dug the inside of that corner out bad. During my main I had to take a slightly different line so I wouldn't catch the right side of my vehicle and spin me.

Lesson learned--always walk the track down before your race.

hand him one of your 6tgc plugs and watch him smile from ear to ear, after 4 to 5 min and it falls flat is a common sign of being to lean off the box, the fms normally has to be pretty fat off the box, the fms rips when tuned right, he sounds a little to lean even with the wrong plugs, and he can use the 97T.

Those plugs are too hot. If he likes OS plugs, start with a Mugen P5 or OS P6 or P7 plug. ODonnells 97t or 99t are very good also.

Default money well spent

protwister engines or worth every nickel. I bought the fms,+4 and a toro from brian. you have the piece of mind knowing the motors are broke in well and almost ready to race tune when you get them. spend the money its worth it.
