i just ran the a852 you modded for me this weekend in my 3.0 losi buggy in wyoming.all i can say is wow.i was getting 11.5 to 12.5 min runtime on a 36 sec lap time track. i won the main by over a lap thanks to speed and only having to pit once. thanks for the awesome work you guys do. you will be getting more motors to mod from me in the near future.

fyi i ran the 8mm carb insert with the throttle only opening up 3/4 of the way to wot.

Today's Race Report;
Had our monthy race here in Hawaii. I ran the RCR modified Lutz engine with 7mm carb restrictor, Ofna 086 pipe, and Werks 30% fuel in my buggy.
Managed to gain the TQ spot in nitro buggy A main after 2 rounds of qualifying with fellow RCR team mate Wayne Tamura (Buggy Master) in a really close 2nd. He ran the RCR modified Lutz as well but with the 2090 pipe combo. I had a great day of qualifying. The RCR Lutz was BALLISTIC and THE most powerful combo that I've ran so far.
The buggy A main went totally a different route though.
Had a miscommunication issue with my pitman and ended up leaving the gate with a really fat tune. Got bumped from behind on the first lap and ended up in dead last. I was able to regain the lead after the others had some mistakes and Buggy Master had some electrical issues. Well, with my overweight tune, I ran out of fuel around the 6 min marker and after another miscommunication with the pitman's tuning, was able to get back on the track in 4th place. I did not have the power to make up any ground as I was still very fat and was actually in everyones way so I decided to pull it off the track with a DNF....BUMMER
Fellow RCR team mate Buggy Master also had a bad luck main with the electrical problem stopping him from his podium finish.
Another RCR team mate Ronnie Senters (Sein) was looking good with his Alphas as well. He wouldve won the Truggy A main if it hadnt flammed as well. he managed a 4th place finish in the B main buggy.
All the Alphas was running strong today as usual, except for mine in the A main :-( (sigh)
RCR Hawaii had a great showing today here and was the engines to watch. We will be back on the next race with some strong podium finishes for sure!
Thanks Lance for the awesome mills!

Mario, your resizing sets are on the bench and will be finished up this afternoon and ship out tomorrow.

Kelly, your sets Have shipped out this morning. I did them the same as your last 4 sets as you requested.

James, Unfortunately your e-bay clamp ruined this sleeve beyond repair. It actually cracked the chrome plating as well Sorry for the bad news. Let me know what you would like me to do with it.

Thanks guys,

Keep an eye on your e-mail for tracking.

+1....leave it to the pros. A local bought one off eBay and ended up returning the pincher to the seller. So cheesy......stick with the pros for pinching services
