Quick video of practice today with my new Clocked Plus4T engine that I got broken in by Clockwork. Within a tank, it lost its mechanical pinch and was ready for a race tune! I had some initial issues getting everything running right, and Neal always answered the phone from 8-10pm on a Friday night. After getting the engine running properly, I prefer the feel of this over the Buggy mod P5 I had earlier this year, more bottom end and better mileage while still being smooth. Another thing I did was going from the Werks 2058 to the Nova 9886/41001 combo, which made a huge difference in the power across the power band, and a 7mm venturi and Werks fuel. Because it had so much more power, I limited the throttle endpoint so the carb only opens 75%. With this it makes the engine a lot more controllable and tames it down for anyone not looking for a super powerful engine...and getting crazy run times in the process. The Buku clutch settings were a little low for me, but the spread out clutch settings (1,2,3 turns out from flush, respectively) made the engine lay down the power without excess wheel spin.

In the video below, I was using the above setup, and could clear the big triple with only about half of the carb open. Many other stock engines were using full throttle and barely clearing it. I'm really liking this new engine, and the 2013 series should be that much better!
