I managed to get second this weekend in expert 17.5 this weekend. Motor ran strong. I was geared at 3.59 and motor timed at 30* first and second run. It was nice and temps came off at 135 to 140*. So in main I just bumped timing up to 35* and it was faster yet. Came off at 160 ish. Still lots of testing to do with gear combo's but results are great so far. Track size was huge. 100+ straight!

One of my customers also had an awesome performance this past weekend racing his R1 Wurks motor. He was pulling everybody on the straight and his motor was barely breaking a sweat. He could have easily geared more aggressively as well.

Well I just found out that the first place guy last weekend was running another brands 13.5 testing for reedy. Lol I was right on pace with him for several minutes and he only got about a half lap on me the whole race with my 17.5. That driver has been a pro since I was a wee little boy in 1986. I wish I had known that.

Ran the R1 17.5 today and was very happy with it. When adjusting the timing I over tighten the screw and it stripped out the threads, does anyone one know where I could find a replacement ring that the screws attached to?

These seem to be out of stock everywhere I've looked (per links earlier)
Anyone know of a 13.5 floating around new or when the next production run is due??

In regard to Indyonroad, your best bet regarding the damaged parts would be to e-mail R1Wurks directly via the contact form on their site.
