Hi all.

Ascari at a local hobbyshop in Denmark

Bloody expensive compared to "normal" engines...

Will they even fit a normal 1/8 car?

There is a huge topic about Grossi engines on this forum. Search for it.

I don't believe a ringed engine can rev past 20,000 rpm.

Unless things have changed, the Ascari (Grossi) didn't use rings.
