Very cool, thanks for posting!
I sometimes wonder why engine manufacturers continuously return to the idea of 'displacement is better' for a truggy. Most of today's .21 engines in stock form are plenty powerful with amazing run time compared to those from say 5 or so years ago. The .23, .25, and .28 race engines in recent years have suffered poor sales due to lower fuel economy and in some cases 'un-driveable' power bands.
Being a truggy only racer, over the past 3 years I've found a quality .21, correctly tuned, with the proper tuned pipe and clutch combination has yielded more consistent lap times and surprisingly respectable run times.
I'm a huge fan of Novarossi products and while I find the new .25 engine intriguing, I'm curious to see how it compares to the vast number of quality .21 engines.

I recently got this engine and I really don't know or can find much info on it. It was in a sealed novarossi box and the box simply says "R21 Buggy". I've searched high and low throughout the net and the only thing I can find that it is a 3 port. Paperwork inside the box states 2010 as a production date. The silver colored head puzzles me as I've never seen a novarossi motor like this.

I recall seeing Novarossi Rex 3 port engines with a metal shielded front bearing a few years back that were marketed as 'rally' engines in Europe and Australia. This could be one of those engines.
