Took a break from r/c for a while to let funds build. Finally got a nice run with the B5. For some reason I never had good luck with the baseball bat pipe. Put the 2013 and the B5 ran great. Now if I could only learn to tune. haha I think it could smoke my old V-spec off the line.

They stopped selling werks fuel here at rev race. What's up with that?

Thanks.

Ron has always done his best to help me so the least I can do is keep buying Werks fuel. Bitchin' stuff.

Alan you get the B5 yet??

Does Werks make this motor completely or is it based on a Picco, Sirio etc?

Star motors (Sirio) makes the motor for Werks.

My Franken GO (3P->7P) + Donut Racing Head added a new mutation today. It is now + Broken Crank Case and is spewing fuel . But on the bright side, I get a new mill .

I've been strongly leaning towards the B5 due to Ron's involvement in the forum as well as my prior experience with STAR Motors via Sirio. The other engine in this price class I'm looking at is the RB Killer 9. Does any one have opinions / experience?
