deadmancourt 02-25-2011 12:44 PM

they also tossed out the Bling Hsn...it was the same anodized orange:(:lol:

fastboy 02-25-2011 12:44 PM

i will try to get some fuel thru it tomorrow just static on the box as the weather is still poor over here.

the rod was as tight as a nuns bum,so no change from the old go then.

cant really tell if the crank is coated or not..short of attacking it with a file...i could always leave it outside in the rain and see if it goes rusty hehe

I know for Sure that Mark Morrow will be racing his next weekend at the Texas pro series race. I will try and capture some video if I have time.

Shouldnīt be far off that Matt. The whole first batch of motors went to all the team drivers around the world. The second production run is underway. I heard mid March or there abouts for shipping, so maybe 3 and a bit weeks before they get landed, distributed, and into waiting hands.
I am hoping to see one in the flesh next week, when my team motors land here. Looking forward to it, itīs been a long wait since we first got wind of the new GXII.

bigmatt 02-25-2011 03:30 PM

Hey Grizz I got the hat. Very nice. Was there 2 sizes? or 1 size fits all. Any way that engine is very nice. Can hardly wait will be like xmas all over. Been running that mg that rex did. Man I can't tell you how sweet it is. if it doesn't cost a fortune I'll ship it to you to give it a run. I'll check into it any way you really need to try it. I go Monday to have a mold of my leg done when I get back I'll stop buy the post office and get an idea. I'm glad I didn't sell the other one now. But since Trey made me a team member the new gx will be in my xray 808.

I GOTTA GET MY HOT LITTLE HANDS ON ONE OF THESE :nod:

Here is my Go GXII on the box just before making a few laps at the Warehouse Raceway in Helena, Alabama. I did a break in today at the Speed Shop to get it somewhat track ready. It is still fairly tight so I'll report after it comes in but I am impressed.
