Nice looking website Monty. I signed up for an account. This guy knows Novarossi's, if you haven't figured that out by now. Keep up the good work.

my break in method is start the engine and idle a tank. then race tune and run it. sounds crazy but it works. my motors rip and last a LONG time. oh and i heat the motor with a heat gun and cover the head for the idle. the motor needs to be around 200 deg during idle. also heat the motor befor the first couple times running it.
