Clockwork Racing Engines and Products...

I was at the hobby shop today picking up a new starter box and the guys were grilling me about my new motor. I wouldn't say anything at first, but finally gave in and told them it was the clocked evo3 (sexy blond). well the guy standing next to us mentions he has a clocked B5 (sexy redhead). I couldn't help but laugh. what are the chances? word is getting out lol. I don't think you can go wrong with either. we are going to look like two bullets shooting up and down the track. I haven't had time to break her in yet ..hopefully this weekend.

I had a few questions about the crf 21 rev 2008 motor. I run it on 30% fuel and a 086 Dynamite pipe. I put an extra head shim in it and run the 7 restrictor. I run it in a mbx6T. Did you say that you got almost 11 minutes with yours? What was the temp range? Mine still seems fat somewhere because I get residue on the side of my body when running and I'm only getting about 8 1/2 to 9 minutes. About 250 for temp on a full tank. I have about 2 gallons threw it now. It is stupid fast and has crazy power. Any help? Thanks.

Your engine is stock ? I am not 100% what to expect for mileage with that engine.....

how does the clocked jpx compare to a stock vspec?
never mind. Just saw video on you tube. Think i have my answer! I also noticed you dropped the head clearance in the middle of the video. Is that advisable? It was ripping shimmed for 30%

I also read somewhere (can't remember where) that if you use o.s. plugs the plugs will strip the head button on picco's. I will be running a stock mugen clutch setup, but i would like some idea's on how to tame it down if i find it has to much bottom and becomes hard to control. I was thinking of changing to a 14t clutch bell with dynamite aluminum shoes and .9 springs.
Should i try carbon or teflon shoes? Or should i just go stock and adjust from there (13t bell, aluminum shoes, .1 springs)

..well, I'm partial to blondes. The Clocked Picco and the B5 are the best truggy engines that I've run, with power from bottom to top, and great mileage when tuned to kill. I just ordered another 4 gallons of Clockwork fuel..once you run this fuel, it makes you wonder how you got along without it!

So at last we had some good weather here in Western Australia and was able to get my Clocked Ninja out on the track and give her a hammering!
To start with i was running a OS P4 plug because i usually like a cooler plug but ended up with the P3 and the engine seams to love the OS P3!! The engine was still butter smooth with more than enough bottom end, ripping top, smooth idle, and great run times! The ninja is a great engine, and after Neil puts the Clock on one it turns into a fantastic engine i have no trouble recommending anyone to try a Clocked Ninja! You will love it!

Just got back from the GLORCS race at Hardcore Racers RC Club in Flamborough, Ontario. I was running a Clocked B6 in buggy and Clockwork fuel in both buggy and truggy. I just started running the fuel at this event and I've gotta say, it's a great product. Until this point, I had been running Byron Fuel, and I'd say my temps are lower at the same level of power. Throttle response is snappier and my runtimes have improved by 45-60 seconds so far.
I've been having really bad racing luck my last few races and it didn't fail this time around, either.
I had bad luck in my buggy quals, got tangled up in traffic a few times and blew a brand spankin' new 7955 in the last qual. Ended up qualified in the C-main. I finished second and bumped to the B. I had a rough start, but I worked my way up to fourth and was on pace to keep moving up until I blew my rear diff. The B6 was really good for me this weekend. I had tons of speed on the looooooong front straightaway and enough torque that I had to be quite gentle with my throttle inputs going off the jumps. I'm thoroughly impressed with the powerband of the Clockwork Werks B6 and I will most likely replace it with another Clockwork B6 when the time comes.
In truggy I qualified into the A-Main with the Clockwork fuel. I retuned for a rather extreme temperature change about 5 minutes before the race. Unfortunately, the weather went back to what it was 20 minutes before the main and I flamed out several times before we were able to swap out plugs and retune for the conditions. We had it running well when I broke the steering linkage in the truck and called it a day.
I had my fair share of bad luck this weekend! Still had a great time, there's nothing quite like the atmosphere you get in the pits at an off-road race.
