HA HA porkchop. Here, i have tuned every Reedy run by unsponsored drivers. Everytime i do they complain that they have to relearn to drive the motor because they now have more power then they had before.
Would you be able to help? Thank you Brian |
dan blight, What gearing did you run on the car? Clutch bell and spur.

Bigedmond, I'll be headed your way for Silver State and I am looking for some help. I'll be running a Reedy in my RC8T that I have very little time on. It was broken in and I got a practice day out of it with the help of a couple AE drivers but ended up having the crank problem. I have not run it since I got it back from AE. I was thinking about trying to get it tuned a day or two before the SS race at the on road track if they will let us on there.
Would you be able to help? Thank you Brian |

If so, you problem is you are lean on the bottom and rich on top. If not, skip the rest of this message. To correct the issues above, richen the bottom 5 hours, and lean the top 2. Take a couple laps, and tune the top from there. You make want to lean the top another hour or 2 depending on how it is running. |
i am running stock gearing with a 17t bell i dont usually tune by temp more on engine response performance and smoke
how does the 7mm produce better top than the 8 or 9 ? i am running around 3 turns out lsn and 2.3 out hsn any ideas ?? |

The Reedy runs best with the 7mm restrictor, hands down. Too many people have had the same results.... 7mm is the peak power.
