A 50 sec video of my GO .25 with a 0801 pipe running up and down the street.
As stated in another thread I was having problems with the glow plug element being "sucked out" of the plug.
Put a new rod in as there was some slop in the original rod (10litres old)
and the glow plug is no longer becoming distorted and "sucked out".

I was just putting on a show for the camera, I normally race.

Nice dude. I was watching that vid thinking that that shell looked familiar. Then I saw a couple of the photos of it at Castlemaine. Mustve been a good photographer that took those shots.

Sure is! Thanks for your run in advice, I am hoping to get that done today. The parents have gone away, the wife and I are now house sitting with our kids and if I am lucky bubs will wake up soon so I can go put a few tanks through it and get the process started.

Bring it on!

Thanks for tips guys
I ran 2 full tanks thru my .21 5 port late yesterday
It got jammed a couple of times but by the end of the 2nd tank was idling pretty smooth
Sounds awesome
Will be out running around the oval today to get it fully run in

Sweet as - I remember your buggy with the Go 7 Port now. You were in the heat after me, and I kept seeing it when I was marshalling. Sounded nasty too !!!
I was running the bright orange GS CL-1, but not any more. Put the old girl to rest in favour of a new X-Ray 808 for 2009. Still running the same Massive Mods Stage 5 5 Port motor though - it is a beautiful thing, and makes the lightweight X-Ray really haul butt
Later

And my GO .21 7Port LIVES!!! Its had 3 tanks idled through it and its had 2 tanks running around the back yard in figured 8's and up and down the drive way and over a few small obsticles trying to behave myself and doing it all properly.

And teh best part was both kids fell alseep while I was idling it and I kept going for another hour ... WOHOO! I was suprised I wasnt in teh bad books but the Mrs came out to see why I was doing things the way I was, which was good

I am amazed at the grunt this thing has even with it running rich at the moment. I am really looking forward to leaning it off over the next 8 tanks slowly and letting it rip!

KK, One very happy and excited Go-Tech owner!
