Mr. Monty seems to really like the FMS, so I will prolly go that route. What do you think Monty? +4 or FMS in the truggy.

FMS is very impressive

Monty,

So what should I do, keep both motors the same and get another +4 or throw a FMS in the truggy?

Thanks,

Jon

the p5xs would be better in the truggy and the plus4 would be better in buggy so i would definitely try that first

sir huh? dont know about that


keep that engine in the 235-245 range , it is still fairly tight on the pinch so it will heat up a little due to friction . keep on motorin'

Monty,

My plan is to replace the P5XS and use it as a back up motor and put the +4 in the buggy. What do you suggest in the truggy?

Thanks,

Jon

Hey monty, for the race Saturday would I do better to pull the 086 pipe off the n21 and put on the p5? Do you think it'd run better then with the 2013 or 2057 on it?

Congrats Houston on the deal with Nova and Mr. Hottinger. That's awesome.

Question for ya: ODO77 plugs for a Plus21-5(non-K) right? If the hot plugs don't help with tuning on this engine I'll need to send it to ya for a check up. I've been using medium plugs and I'm not sure they are the correct heat range.

Is there any real advantage to change from 25% to 30%, if so what are they?
