Difference? tricky
With the LL3 Runnertime gave me a few more revs, and it made that first start of the day easier, it also needed much shorter warm up time.
The CRF just feels better with Tornado...

I always understood that it is the Nitro that cools the motor which is why we are restricted to 16% in the Uk.
So on a small tight track where you cannot get the speed to cool the motor would it not...

I 2nd that
I was 100% Kyosho since 1997, but then I tested a G4S and found it suited my style much better than any other car I tested.
I just need to find out if this motor is right for me, or if...

The JP 2620 is almost the same as the NovaRossi 2601, and it worked with the JP FX T03, Sirio Evo2 & Ev03, and NovaRossi LL3 so I doubt that is the problem.
The G4S has a higher FDR than any other...

Skyline not available in the UK, and Customs fees on US imports are more than the price of the goods themselves.
UK and rest of Europe runs on 16% so that's not an option.

I will try the longer pipe, and also try taking some weights out of the clutch.

loads of top revs, motor really screams, it's the bottom end I need with a drivable clutch.
Think I may have to bin this motor and get one I know works, a JP.
