thanks for the information. I can't say much about rb .21 because I never owned one. But the factory rb.12, and the Murnan rb m3 are about as fast as it gets.

I know that's why I'm using RB engines.

The thing is, I have been using JP engines solely for five years, with no problems whatsoever.
For 2009 I bought two P3L tuned engines and one Tuned Eagle, ceramic bearing and pre-run in the factory.
But when I put the engines on the track the two P3L's were much faster as the eagle( 103km/h compared to 97km/h) .
The Eagle was slow on bottom end and in topend.
So I contacted JP why my 400 euro engine was being completely trashed by my 200 euro engines.
I was pretty sure the engine was out of tolerance and simply wanted a new one. As a very loyal customer I think I should get that kind of service on a 'handpicked' engine. Off course I didn't get a new engine and sold the Eagle paperweight.
Bought two RB R3RC's and never looked back.
The RB's are doing 108km/h on the straight btw.

Ah, the good J-Pizzle returns in one form or another. I'll put this on the short list of motors for the year

When i had the P3L black modified edition was slower than picco JLR..
When i got my RB R3 i had in my car the engine wasnt predictible as the JP..
In our nationals RB R3(a friend o fime had it) was even faster than Eagle and everyone was surprized. I know that parameters like break in,bearing etc have a roll but...
Now for my Motonica i bought a RB Classico 9, and im sure it will be faster that MIG engines....

I know my last Eagle R9 did not perform as the first 2 I have got but with a different gearing it did came to life. I can not tell for the .12 engines but can imagine it can be the same.

I tried very short gearing, a lot shorter then the ones I normally run.
Tested with every single exhaust, but no power what so ever.
So it was probably out of tolerance.

All of the jps that I have had and have seen have been fast. Chris Whitney jps were all ways the fastest motors on the track. I have the classic 9 and my Jp r9 s blows the doors off of it in the speed department. You also have to remember you have to gear jps alot lower than you would other motors if you don't they will never get into the meat of there powerbands. By the way the top speed record for a touring car at 301 raceway was broken by Vincent Jackson last year at 65mph with his Jp tl3-t eagle with was held by c-whit with his Jp to3-t and Jamie coraddo with Murnan rb r3 at 64mph. Plus the rb c9 is much faster than the classic9-10 but the best driver will always win.
