Ok so Colin Branch of CB Concepts sent me his personal engine this week for me to test as i'm changing my motor sponsor. First thing is that Colin pulled his personal engine out of his race buggy for me to test. The Motor arrived this morning around 10 am. I put my flywheel and clutches on and headed out to the track. Got there and fired this beast up. It fired right up. I let it idle for a bit to clear out the wd40 i put in it. Left the needles rich and ran a few lap to get it up to a tuning temp. I then started tuning this baby. The motor tuned really easy. I got a good race tune on it. I had it a little fat on the bottom and got 8.15mins of run time. at about 220deg. And it had tons of power. I real heavy on the trigger so that warrants the 8 min run time. This motor is AWESOME. I will be running these for the rest of the year and hopefully more after that. I would recommend this engine to any racer Sportsman or expert. Awesome motor and price is dialed as well. Thanks Colin!!!

Hi,
Just som info;
I hope you have not put any WD40 inside the engine as it will destroy the red filling in the crank. Wd 40 makes the filling swell and loosen from the crank shaft.
Only use mineral oil for afterrun and storage.
