down here in NZ we're mostly at sea level and it rearly gets over 30C...I run OD97T and 30% nitroX
Hustler, i sympathise with you, we are just comming out of winter and have no indoor tracks in NZ for nitro or 1/8th...luckily we still get outdoor racing through winter with a lot of track work and pumping off water :rolleyes:

I also run OD97T, but use 25% NEO+ fuel. Found the plug to be a good allrounder, in hot,humid or dry weather. We had a very long wet season this year, January till end of April, the boys were having withdrawl symtems. Now it is the complete opposite, NO rain for 4 months, hot dry and very dusty. Keeps your tuning skills up;) Because our temperature range is usually between 12 and 35 degrees, mostly above 22, we have fairly consistent tuning patterns. Have just aquired a GODZILLA motor, (STD version),Man aren't they something else.:eek:

Havn't seem any of those over here yet, saw flannos 25 at the femca truggy, that had some mean power.
Is Mark still sticking with modifying GO motors?..whats happening with the italian motors he was switching to, I here the techno power power brand is closing down, was that the brand he was going to modify.

Don't know about the Italian motors, but the Godzilla I have is a modified GO engine, standard rod, improved and lightened crank and different port timing. The others in the Godzilla Range are step-ups from there: ie different rod,bearings etc.I am sure Flanno posted a speal about them in RCTECH, either in this form or the GODZILLA , Massive Mods thread. Well worth a read:nod:
Memory Flash, it is on the Offical Massive Mods GODZILLA Forum on RCTECH

Hello everybody,

I'm looking to buy a new engine to run in the championships next year.

Currently has a WS9 and a NOVA Plus4.

I want to know more about this new model of GO.

For I am in doubt between three engines. RB B11, Werks B6 and GO GXII.

I like a good engine on all tracks, but smooth.

This new GXII which is near the engine, NOVA Plus4?


Sorry my bad English!

Hi Diegoli, The Gx11 are a smooth and easy motor to work with,The power delivery is a good all-round performance. I have a Nova Plus 4 as well, and the power is about the same, run time is similar, Be sure to run the GO 2072 Matched pipe if you want the best balance of power and tank run time . I have found the motor to be good value for money. Hope this helps.:)

Thanks for any information!!!

motomatt 10-18-2011 05:56 AM

I have them in stock. Does the webstore really show them as out of stock?

Yea when you put one in the cart. It loads the shopping cart and says "The Connecting Rod is not currently available. Please contact us for availability of this item."

But that is awesome that you have them I'll be getting one or two. I'll give you a call after I get off work.

Parts ordered. Thanks again, moto. And has anyone had problems with the TiN coating? I don't think my crank has any. But it doesn't seem to be worn.

motomatt 10-19-2011 04:09 PM

Parts shipped today Troy. Friggin USPS, I couldn't print a shipping label at PayPal, so I had to run into town and have the postal clerk do it. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

The GX coated parts have been very durable. The ONLY crank I saw with the coating worn.....................had the air filter fall of on a very dusty day.
