Just thought I would tell ya that the lilttle limited 3 port you sold me a while back powered me the take 1st place at the west coast dirt oval nationals this past weekend

I am also getting on offroad 10+ minutes on every track I race at and I never feel like I need more hp..I can`t wait for summer to get here to see how the run time will be in summer..I am currently using 1/3rd of a tank every 5 minutes on a large track and ou side temps in the upper 50`s.I know to some that this is going to be hard to believe and most think I am talking out the side of my mouth but I have witness`s that can vouch for me....

My setup is a NR .21 3 port limited with 6mm venturi with a TT 2035 pipe

Rossoh10, where do you race at? I live in Palmdale and race at HotRod Hobbies. Do you run at the north BAkersfield track? How is it, what kind of turn out do they get? Do they run an expert buggy class.

I have enough top end for what I need...Our back straight is 200 some feet long...I get pulled by a couple buggy lengths by some guys running $300+ engines but it doesn make much difference..I make it up and then some on the infield section.I`m running a 13cb...I`m geared really really low and most everyone else is geared tall for the back straight..It works out great for me because I have a tight track and this big track that I race..The less set up changes I have to make going back and forth from each track the better

Monty,

We are racing Saturday, everything has been rained out down here. I will get you some feedback on Sunday. Cade is chomping at the bit to run it.

My bad on the big pic, lol. That's my kid in the orange shirt. How do you size the pics anyway?

Jon
