Well, then dont chime in??? Do you race 1:8 IC, do you race VS products... i am sure that if i run my Tecnopower P02 in my MRX5, and tell lets say Ralphie what head shimming i run, what carb insert, pulley set, gearing and what my needle settings are, that he (in his MRX6r) or any other racer would be able to get close to my quoted mileage! Its all a given, and you always state random variables that to those that race are aware of!!
We did not start yesterday, come on???
You are questioning and stating things that necessarily are already taken into account, in established threads with regular contributors!!! We are not beginners, we are interested in the product that we chose to use and actually race! Either way...
