Without sounding like a jerk, Didnt Nova switch USA distribution from FMS to Desoto Racing ( Serpent ) ? If so why are they making a Fusion X engine?
Jim is no longer the dealer for Nova USA but they are making him his own engine? These are just questions and an explanation as to why I am confused

this doesnt have anything to do fuel with MY FUEL IS BETTER THAN YOURS!!!
\

people can bash certain fuel companies all they want but the fuel i choose to use has been consistant time after time bottle after bottle , where these stories of bad fuel are coming from is interesting and many times unfounded or the problems were really related to somebody storing the fuel improperly or something of that nature and that will happen with ANY brand fuel !!

these newer synthetic lubricants may be a lil more impervious to spoiling but i am sure they will sooner or later

Since when do you have to be a Nova importer to have Nova make you a motor? Are JP, GiMar, RB, HPI, Maxpower, Losi, etc. importers? No.

Also in RC the proof of these claims are very hard to prove/disprove. In an activity like RC that takes skills to be good...the equipment at times has less to do with racing success then the actual racer does. We have all seen the top racer in your area kicks butt with a certain combo of racing gear. All of sudden the track is like spec racing as everyone else has ran out and bought the same stuff as the number 1 guy. When in fact #1 guy is the best because he is the most skilled. We all like to think we can buy success....lol
Many good points, but I can honestly say the #1 driver at my track runs a Kyosho, and he is the only one.. Not because it isn't better or as good, but because it is too damned expensive.. Mugen is the #1 used buggy or truggy with Hot Bodies or X-Ray being a close 2nd and 3rd.
