You mean the section where you post something and within 10 minutes your post is on page 80? I have seen alot of guys post here for GO's they got for sale so I thought I would get more responses here.

I don't see an issue either. It is not like he is hi-jacking the thread. I think it is perfectly fine to mention what you have for sale in the appropriate thread. If you have ever sold anything on the "For Sale/Trade" section of this forum, you will know that within an hour your post will be burried at least 10 pages back.

vnmsgt is a authorized Go Tech Dealer and he seems to be a "Stand-up" guy. Other Go Tech dealers have mentioned having Go Tech products for sale on this thread an no one else has complained.

vnmsgt, continue doing what you're doing bro, offering Go tech products and great customer service to those who are interested in these fine mills. Good luck with your sales.

Thanks! BTW the .28 is sold so I just got the .25 left now. It is funny I thought the .25 and .28's would sell good but the .21's seem to be what is the best now and not too many guys I see with .28's anymore, Me included

Congrats on buying the 5 Port, you will love it.
These motors come shimmed from the factory for up to 30% nitro. It will run fine on 20% as it is. When your 20% runs out, bump up to 25% it's a nice safe % for good power. Use OS P3 if you can get them. Depending on ambient temps the 5 Port will run on anything from a #3 to a #6, but most guys find these motors run very well on the P3. You might like to get an 086 pipe as well for this motor. The 5 ports love em. Dynamite 086 is a good value for money pipe. Spend a little more and get the Go FEMCA 0801, just a tad better. Have fun

I'm approaching the 2 gal mark on my 3pt Race and am looking to replace the con rod. Looking on A-main they only show a con rod for the 5 port.
Are they the same?

Thanks!

The 5 port con rod is the same.
Meno 222, you could run it with just the silver shim and no brass.

Default UNBELIEVABLE

I HAVE BEEN IN THE RC BACKYARD BASH STAGE OF THE HOBBY FOR 6 YEARS. I STARTED OFF WITH THE LOW LEVEL RC VEHICLES. THE DURATRAX MAXIMUM ST THEN WENT TO THE STREET FORCE 2. I HAD THE O.S 15 BLUE HEAD IN BOTH OF THEM. THE 2 SPEED STREET FORCE REACHED 49 MPH. I RECENTLY BOUGHT AN OFNA LX-1. MY INTENT IS TO AT LEAST START CLUB RACING. AFTER 2 MONTHS THE FACTORY .28 JUST PETERED OUT. I WAS GOING TO INSTALL THE O.S 21VG. MY LOCAL HOBBY SHOP TALKED ME INTO GETTING THE GO TECH .21 5 PORT. WITH A LOT OF HARD SELLING FROM THE STORE I BOUGHT IT. AFTER A DIFFICULT TIME OF BREAKING IN, I TOOK IT OUT TO A PARKING LOT TO TEST IT OUT WITH A FEW BUDDIES. THERE WAS A TEAM ASSOCIATED, REVO W/ RB523, AND KYOSHO. AFTER 5 MINUITES ON THE PARKING LOT I BALD MY FACTORY TIRES. I WAS REALLY IMPRESSED WITH THE POTENTIAL. THE OTHER BUGGIES HAD O.S. .21VG W/ JP-4 PIPES. I PUT A JP-4 PIPE ON MY BUGGY. I COULDN'T KEEP THE DARN THING STRAIGHT. I WENT BACK TO JP-1 PIPE FOR BETTER CONTROL. I STILL HAD POWER THAT I COUDN'T CONTROL. THE GO TECH IS A SECRET WEAPON. THE LESS OTHER PEOPLE KNOW THE BETTER OF YOU WILL BE

Hey,

I was just wondering if the length of the exhaust tubing could alter the tune of an engine.

As today when I was out I had about two inches of the tubing cut somehow, so I just plugged in what was left ( still quite long ) and all of a sudden I was running rich!
