Ahh...ya know what Timmies is ! its the good stuff eh ! ..not like that swill they sell at that there Starbucks place ! :D

Nice chris :rolleyes::lol:

Neal I live in TO. My heart is in Cali. Going back this spring.

How does the standard glow plug plus 4 compare to the turbo head one, in terms of power?

if u didnt know the difference you wouldnt hardly be able to tell if you were running a plus 21-4 buggy or a plus 21-4T , now the team is completely different as are any of the btt series

the turbo underhead will add some efficiency and smoother power with a gain of rpm but its not something astronomical , btw with some underhead reshaping there can be more performance from the standard head button ;)

I have a fusion modified N21R, can I use the button from it on the plus 4?

Anyone have the part# for the exhaust gasket for the btt. Tia

Nov21000

Its actually 21000/2 John but the 21000 will work

The new ones are kind of valley/convex rather than a distinct channel like the old ones do

Hey Monty,
I have a 21 CT and I've been having tuning issues with it mostly on the bottom end and won't hold the idle, and after inspecting the motor, I found the sleeve will just drop out of the crankcase, usually there tight, can this be the problem?
the motor has only 2 gallons on it, or do you need more info
thx

21 ct?
Plus 21-4c team?

Thats not normal no

Looks like a new Truggy engine is coming: http://www.novarossi.it/eng/news/read.php?newsid=160 :tire:
Is there really a market for that? Anyhow, it´s always fun with something new. :)

I tried finding a price for a new bonito cooling head anyone have a idea?

Back flip practicing for summer xgames :D

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.

Funny I was going to buy that one and was wondering if that was a good deal what do you think good deal? I dont really need thats why Im asking but my CRE bonito is crying cuase she got a spanking:D

Yes Jay, it's actually a great deal and shipping is only $5
Go make that Bonito proud once again. :lol:

.....and maybe go buy some tie straps for the new head when it arrives LOL

Any NovaRossi experts in the house...

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.

Dont take this as I know exactly what the engine is but I know novas fairly well and I am pretty sure it is a rex version of the n21r limited

Probly a euro rally engine

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.

Damn Turbo, where'd you find that dinosaur at?

2010 production he said , not too dinosaur :lol:

Viva la novarossi!

That engine are no good anymore, Lowrance. Metal fatigue, risk of rusten bearings, dust in the carb etc. etc.

Ship it to me instead... :D

don't forget theta no good front bearing... if i was him i would give it away... TO ME... to much stress to for him to handle

You bumder...! :lol:

:D:D:sneaky:

nova pluss3.5?????
 

after break-in i was getting 11.5 to 12min of runtime. now after 6 gallons or so its now runnin 9 to 10 min a tank. i have changed the front barring and played with the tuning on my carb. i loaned the motor to a friend for a race. i am thinking he may have ran my motor hot. it started loosing run time after he used it. down to 7 minutes or so per tank. i pulled the button off and the o ring was stuck i cleaned the button and put it all back together. its now picked back up to the 9 or so minutes runtime.

do yall think i should get another head button for it?

thanks

send it to ray for recondition .. you at 7 gallons or it won't hurt..

Loaning an engine to a friend is like loaning your wife to a friend. She's never the same when you get her back. lol

best analogy I've ever heard

I ran a Nitrotec R21 and a RE10 pipe for about 7 gallons last season and loved it but went ahead a got a BTTA for this year. Anyway my question is have any of you racers ran the Losi RE10 with your BTT or other similar mill? I am trying to save a little money and stick with the Losi pipe which is similar to the 9901 and 2060 I think. Thanks for any info!

RE12 is the one thats "similar" to the 9901ss/41021 pipeset

if you are happy with the RE10 on your nitrotec it will run similar on your plus 4

i would still recommend a 9901ss/41021 or 2096ss/41021 :nod:

the guy with runtime issues , usually when an engine loses its compression seal and starts to get some blowby occuring you start to richen the engine on both lsn and hsn (putting more oil/fuel mix in the chamber to compensate for looseness) but mainly lsn so you lose a tremendous amount of runtime by doing so and risk of flameouts increases dramatically

resize from Rayaracing.com = goodness :nod:

Ray does phenomenal work and theres tooling in his shop that is not sold to others by way of purchasing his own brand (yes he is "THE MAN") of resizing equipment ;)

Black rubber/plastic/whatever shielded front bearing on this one...

You know me.....always after the "deal". Sometimes I win and sometimes I lose...;)
