oh, it was on 190mm, have not look thouroughly on the 200mm version.

You have some pic's of our friend Luis on your site.
He tells me one of your local guys does some rather quick modded OS engines.
Yep. very good at it too. but the person asked me not to mentioned his name here.
becoz of this, our LHS got out of stock problem already. everyone seems to ask for this engine...its cheap and reliable and fast too. One guy here use that engine and constantly in the top 5 A main here. So imagine guys with all the nova powered...obviously more powerful...lost to this guy.

p/s i still want to keep my NovaMax though

So does it mean because of using the OS engine he is in the top 5?

Its working now: go see it here if you like!

How are you spending your long weekend? Racing?
Blogging stuff looks good - I'm too lazy to keep something like that up

Extended period in England include no RC just catching up on friends and family.

Cheers, Mark.

Not such a big fan of Newcastle Brown, the best english beers I've had have all come from small, indepedant breweries. Great LPAs and bitters This is very similar to the German breweries and the quality of the beer is also very high.
But, you really have to go to an english pub to get these, as getting bottled beer of this quality in the UK is very hard.

Cheers, Mark.

thats what most racer here thought. As u know, people tend to follow the champion or the fastest one on track whatever they use. thats what happen to Mugen MTX3 sales here. The top 3 using MTX3, Nova S5 engine & 3PK. wherever u go on the track, everyone seems to use all those combination!

[BUT NOT ME, OBVIOUSLY. and sometimes, i wonder maybe thats why im still where i am today...bottom.

im the 1st one using 710 and KO Helios and only 2nd or 3rd person using NovaMax here. I still believe its the driver ability to get up there.]

so whenever someone new in town using only OS TR with GS Vision Pro kit got 2nd in the A main...surely something must be right...they end up saying its the OS... becoz he's the only one without engine problem right till the end of race.
