Hey Adam whats the business? I will continue to do Nitro in the summer, winter, rain, storm etc. Hell the engines I have, lasted longer than a full season plus bashing. I lost count after 6 gallons in all the engines and they are still performing. No complaints for me! I'm probably wanting to get a gas engine done, Baja.

Business is good

Id like to say send that Baja engine this way, but truth is i don't have a lot of R&D on the Baja engines under my belt to start spitting out engines for them. Now i do have a lot of experience with the 26cc zen marine engines as i spent a few years with those. But anymore unfortunately im too busy to pick up modifying the engines for the Baja guys. I do really enjoy the larger scale gas engines buggys though and wish i did have time to do some R&D with them.

The engine magic Adam did to mine and several clients of RaceMugen and Team Drivers are all just amazing.
Linear power, easy starting tuning, and just runs perfectly.

Adam the .18TZ you did for me for Motorama a few years back was sick People are still talking about it.Wish I had one last year.

I am sending you a couple Orion MTE,s for my truggy.Never ran a stock one so I don't know what to expect or what I would want.Let me know what you recommend.Whats different on the MTE as compared to .21 rev or .21 us spec ect.

And I am sending you my last .18tz so I can put this Revo to bed in style!

Oh and what pipe do you like for the CRF .24 and CRF Rev .28 ?

Ok i usually don't rant but today i feel like i need to explain something. This is obviously not to any of my customers but for the random people spreading mis information on all these RC forums online.

Rant begins..

For those of you that don't know how to properly modify a nitro engine please stop hacking up sleeves and cranks and taking pictures of them and misguiding others. To properly modify these engines you want to keep vibration down and actually work the port timing, set compression among other things. NOT hack up the sleeve or the counter balance which 99.9% of the time are done wrong and just throw more vibration into your engine that not only hurts performance but kills the lifespan of the engine. SO please if you don't have a lot of experience with these engines and know how to properly alter them for what you are trying to achieve and are just guessing away from some other pics you have seen online then please don't misguide others!

Rant over. Have a good day everyone!

The 9886 pipe works well overall on this engine. But don't be afraid to try different pipes AND header lengths.
