Novarossi EFRA 2652 vs EFRA 2660

I see these two pipes and wonder what the difference is. All I see is the 2660 costs a bit more and the 2652 is easier to find. Can someone explain the difference?

i think if you're only doing straight line runs you want a drag motor. There's many companies that produce modded Nitro motors for drag competition. It depends on what you are willing to spend on it....

So how does the Maxpower XXL3 compare to a Murnan Modified RBM3? It's based off an RB t9. Also looking at the Murnan RBT10RC which is quite a bit more money than the Maxpower.

It is good stuff and if I cannot find maxy's fuel, Byron's is my next choice and performs almost exactly the same (no need to radically readjust the needles).

So many options...honestly I would never consider the NtC3 for racing. I'd go with the Nt1 WCE if the roughly $680 entry price doesn't bother you. Comes with all the option parts used by team drivers.

1.5v x 8 = 12v normally for alkaline AA. My radio (KO Helios) is using 8 AA NiMH and reads above 10v (1.2v nominal per cell but they peak above 1.2 obviously). Some radios like my Spektrum DX3S runs...

No it doesn't hit. I spent some time getting it just right when I put this particular battery in. It is close. I can see where you might think it is hitting.

These screws imperative on V-One RRR? (pic included)

The two screws circled in the picture don't tighten up. I'd say the inside of wherever they thread is stripped. They do get to a point of some resistance but never tight. I have put some teflon tape...

I use some random temp gun with the laser on the end. Dunno what it's called. Got it from Harbor Freight for like $10 one day with a coupon. It gets me a ballpark number.

Nothing is too fast for me. Nobody said I had to bring everything back in one piece did they? :weird:

35-40mph is still faster than I thought though, not bad at all.
