Tom,
Thanks for the information. Sorry cant come to Toledo this weekend- doing the family thing with the wife and baby.
I did just about everything you suggested with this engine. I just purchased a new engine and I'll probably just sell this one. This is a brand new engine and not quite sure what the problem could be.
Have you heard about the new RC Screwz track that is opening in Livonia. Its an indoor smooth asphalt track. I visited there the other day and it looks like they are going to have a really nice set up. The track is set to open 9/11.
Have fun at the Nats.
Tony
