I'm coaching 2 different guys via pm's on how to tune them, both V2s. They both just got them broke in so a little time will tell about fuel mileage. We'll have to come up with some kind of average since everybody has different driving techniques, different tracks, skill levels and fuel brands. I guess i should get a V2 for xmas or a B6 after i see how it turns out with the latest mods. I want all clocked engines, i just don't like having the same kind of engine. Variety being the spice of life!

I have 5 different working engines right now, 3 of them are clocked and 2 are stock. I would rather have that one perfect engine than the variety you speak of. The B5 is as close to perfect as I have found so far, lacking only a smoother power band. It has the best runtimes by far of any mill I have ever used, there is plenty of power everywhere and its the most fun to drive. I'm running it with a 2013 right now, but I am going to try the 2057, and the 2058 and see if I can smooth it out a little more. If I can get it just a tad smoother than I am hooked on this engine and will just stick with this for a couple of years. Running it at the Nitro Pit, I can clear jumps that others struggle with and it always turns heads. The only thing I have not fully tested is longevity. It has about 2 gallons on it right now and it gets a steady dose of about 2 gallons a month of fuel.

that is why you dont get married!

James, that smoothness you mentioned is great for buggy but the truggy needs the hard hitting mid range. I'm waiting to see what the new B6 mods look like on the dyno. It's that or a V2 B5. John and Neal have been very good to me so i will be sure to stick with an engine they stock. Thought about another RB but i already have 1 Neal refurbished for me. I need a truggy engine, not a buggy engine. Already have enough engines suitable for buggy. Neal has been wanting me to try a JPX.

Jaz240 Hambone likes them ruff,raw,loud, aggressive, hard hittin,low mileage with good endurance.The thrill is always there when there new but after while he is tired of playing with them and in the end nothing brings a bigger smile to his face then when they just RUN AWAY!!!

Hey Philly, when are we going to get some of those darn Sweep truggy tires?? They keep telling me soon...but soon never gets here...I want some now!!

Hambone, we're trying one of Neal's Clocked B6's in buggy this winter...I'll let you know how it performs, but I think I already know the answer If it ain't Clocked it ain't in my ride!!!

Well i do know there was a setback because they could not get the manpower at the factory because of the high level of intense labor. Then The Team was busy for IFMAR at Bangkok.But they should be here VERY soon.I hope the truggy tires last as long as the buggy rubber!!

Me too! They told me last month that the tires were ready but there were some issues with the inserts, and they didn't want to release just the tires and wheels separately with no inserts. I'm anxiously waiting...

Neal's JPX is insane!!! He used to do nothing but Picco's. It's a great truggy engine for sure

Better to wait a little longer and have it right when they hit the states. Did you run the exergons with the center pin removed on the buggy? That combo has the most forward bite of any buggy tire i have tried. But on a hard service on power they seem to roll to much on the side wall making it a little squirrely out

The 2057 does smooth the bottom out a tad mate, still have great run times, power and top end but just smooths her out a bit! The note isnt as good as the 2013(the 2013 on the B5 is awsome) but still pretty good!

i think this got missed in all the rucous. Any insight between the two Neal.

Yeah mate i know how many facters go into getting millage, that is why i asked Neal if there is going to be a difference between the two. I am more so after Neals thoughts on matter (i know and trust him) so that i can get my motors sorted for next season (no disrespect intended at all mate)

Good luck with helping the new fellas bud i hope it all travels smooth!

I actually have the XZB setup identical to my modified Speed...so they should be making the same power.......i have edited my XZB Mod since the first one I did...after doing the Speed I decided to put them both to the same timing profiles...

Sweet thanks Neal. I Found my buggy engine for next year.
