Will get the engines on Wednesday, only 30 made
They used a few in the Euros and they sold 20 engines to the fastest to reply distributor. Will post pictures of the engine. It is a beefed up Sirio engine - according to RB they will change the crank case to make it fit to all cars

will the matrix be a limited edition model or will it be mass produced by the v12?

Matrix will be a production engine, RB will still be making the V12 line of engines.

Can't finish a 20 minute mains
Need some advice here on my RB V12. My engine seem to not last a 20 min main, actually it would only run consistently for 5 to 6 mins and it would just flame out. Temp wise it's only running at 115C. Tried replacing the plug and it look like it solve the problem but problem comes back again. All the help will be much appreciated 
My goal is to at least finish a main 
Thanks!
Roy

I've actual reset the thing to factory settings (also as suggested by extremehobbies 5 turns on the high side) Maybe adjusted the idle a little so it doesn't flame out.
Fuel wise, if you measure from the bottom of the tank I'd say I still have around 1/4" of fuel.
Thanks.
