Ha Monty,
Looking to change clutch sys. and wondering what you would suggest. Currently I am running the fioroni clutch in buggy & truggy 70/30 split, on the .28 1 hard & 2 standard, the .21 1 standard & 2 hard. I like the maintenance of the clutch and it works great in the .28 but on the .21 it has a slight bog off the bottom. Looking for a clutch that grabs strong & has good durability. I have not ran a standard 3 shoe alum. in a few yrs. but I remember there was a lot of maintenance.( constantly filing shoes, bearing and spring replacement. Any suggest. would be appreciated. Have heard the m2c 4 shoe were good clutch set ups.:

i finally got a chance to run in the n21bf today monty (using your instructions of course). i was very impressed, still rich and it was making pretty good power. it idles more reliably than my p5x even with a rich lsn, which is great. now it's just a waiting game for the nuts to drop so i can start unleashing the lil beast.

Reliable power!
Hey Monty,
Nick and I just wrapped up the Rise RC points series yesterday. Nick took 1st place for the season and I took second. Nick truly won his place by driving very well and very consistent. I believe that I won 2nd due to the fact that I was there for every weekend. I did improve my times as the season went on but Nick is on a whole different level. I can say that the dependable Houston's engines were a huge factor in how we did this year.
Thanks for the killer engines and the support Monty.
Will be talking at you soon I hope.

Well got the 21-5K in my buggy and heated it up to start it and my chrome top Ofna box said no way Jose. Now I gotta wait till my Mugen box and lipo get here
But it does look good and I made vroom-vroom sounds with it
