Default Re: BRB IN RODY V12 5 ports

Hi Edward,

Just brought a Rody rb v12 5 ports from a fellow racer, Actually it is a team one !! I am going to run it as normal and the slip in a new BRB set !!!. JP fx 01 are ok, nothing great about them, was running one a couple of week ago, and the average lap time was 14.37, but with the Rody RB C5 in the same car, the lap time was 14.09 !!!! The Jp looks quicker ( i thought it was quicker ) but lap time never lie!!!! Maybe the JP was wheel spinning, hence got to change 1st gear. My BRB NSR 12 still locks up at TDC !!! never had a engine that do that after 8 litres !!!

Hi Phillip.
Thanks for update. I agree with you about JPs. They screem a lot, but speed isn't the best. We were able to compare here in LA and it is not quicker in our case too.
Usualy it takes 2 and half gallons beofre our piston material start getting loose. I still have prototype PS12 with 6 gallons throught it and still stacking little bit on TDC.
Best regards
Edward
