Monty check your spam folder for the rc shop guy. he said he sent you an email, and if you havent got it can you tell me exactly what he needs to get a dealer price list. his communication isnt the best, i updated my xb9 but didnt get the new throttle linkage so I asked if he had it because the 2012 was too short, he said yes i show up he has 2012 not the new longer 2013 style. he is a great guy his English just isnt up to par, we did look around his shop and I got some rod from an hpi, hopefully i can get it cut down and give the update a try in the morning

U r correct Anders

15009 timings are a few degrees less in both opening and duration for the most part in comparison to 15010 , 15007t and 15009t

The castings of the cranks get the opening and closings close but the 15010 and the "tuned" cranks are ground to a specific opening/closing duration

Had another solid outing this past weekend,

Getting the "K" truck down more. Man I wish I would have got that truck a lot sooner. LOL.

The Houston Special was rocking all weekend long. Hard to beat a trouble free tuning engine setup. LOL

Took third in the trucks second race in my hands

Yeah she can wheel, and wheel well. She and her Husband usually run oval and she is a national champ in 1/8th nitro late model. She's still new to the offroad side, but getting faster each time out. Both are real cool people and love to race.

Bother her and the Kid that took 1st had me by over two laps. It was all I could do to just get the 3rd spot. A very rough first 8 minutes and then a flame out after my first pit stop (took so long to start the main, my pit guy didn't have me topped off all the way. Cavitated the fuel in the filter after the stop), and I thought I was done for. It's racing though and in a long main a lot can happen. Wish I could have got the start I had going and stayed with them. I think it could have been a real fun battle.
