There are 2 versions, Outlaw with the 6mm stinger, and legal which complies with regulations.

The skyline pipe (5.2mm) is ROAR legal, but it does not have an IFMAR/EFRA/JMRCA etc approval number. I found out the hard way that this was a requirement for AARCMCC events. If it's for club racing and not sanctioned events then the pipe is wicked and you shouldn't hesitate to use it.

Even skyline is sold out

http://www.skylinercracing.com/store/P_16.htm

Though the best price I've found is at A.I's ebay store, but he only ships internationally by special request

http://www.pro-hobby.net/

He is reportedly opening a non-ebay online shop shortly with even cheaper prices and hopefully international shipping

It was slug in the final. even before i smashed it. I was using the 333 in the heats and then ran the fuel i won at auction for the Greg Still Cup and i think it is different to the 333. MM can confirm!?
I may have to lean it out a bit.

I'm using the fuel i bought there too, just checked the bottle and it says EXP A. I just assumed it was 333 so I haven't retuned, but I haven't noticed a drop in performance either

Guys, There aren't a whole lot of differences between 333 and EXP A. Put simply 333 is a race bred blend, its made for racing by racers, i remember when it was in developmental stages. EXP A is your more basic fuel, more suited to RTR car, the main difference is EXP A will contain a considerable more amount of oil to protect the punishment those RTR engines will cop...

Yes, leaning with the EXP A blend will give you more speed but in the end if you want the same speed get the 333 blend, CMC has a healthy stock of all MM fuels

Don't worry about the EXP A, is still meets the high standards mark has Just run it and have a slower car for a while

Btw, massive whats the price on those VR12 pipes? i'm interested

I did notice a lot more oil was spewed all over the car. Don't worry, i will be heading to CMC to get that sweet 333.

So that's 3 skyline pipes that are sold already, hope you stocked up Mark!

Yes i too will be going up to CMC to grab some 333, it's a bit less pressing for me because our friends have kindly put their wedding on Sunday week, and then SMA isn't meeting for nitro until june. I might have to get this buggy running in the meantime, how's the 111 fuel go?

We may have to run a special meeting at SMA for Nitro. Maybe a Saturday event.
