I hope this helps.
thank you, Sir
slightly yes, it's still a cold engine, when go to the track it will warm up.
don't want to lean it out too much on the pits.
plus it is an RTR motor, not anything like my Sirio, it's beast and sounds totally different. I can post video on that too (but it's not buggy based
)
with these cheaper motors one has to be careful not to overheat, otherwise it will result as a burnt plug (and they ARE expensive being turbo type)
I've been tuning like 10 years now ;D not that I'm perfect but I do feel I can tune...
also remember it's a centax, it doesn't work exactly like the buggy one.
here, the motor has to be rev'ved a few time on/off the track then it really starts to kick in (warm up). And then it works so much better than a buggy clutch, really good for onroad racing.
Have centax on both of my cars, the "race" BMT and this rally for pure fun. Well of course the BMT race car is for fun, too, but differently fun ;-)
