Yes the 5 did have alot of bottom but it was still driveable on the track we were at. Both ran flawless and responded to changes well. He did end up winning the 30 minute buggy main by 3 laps! It wasn't because of lack of talent, there was at least 6 other chassis sponsored racers there too! Everyone commented on the motors.

I did shorten the needle on both motors after break in. I shortened them by .200 inch, same length as a Nova.

Has anyone had problems with a rod on a Rb mod Go?

You sure you didn't mean .02 inch because .2 inch sounds like way too much.

Has anyone tried running an 086 with a longer header on a 7 port? If got an extra JP-3 and I'm thinking about using it's header with a 086 on my 7 port. Maybe even use an exhaust extender to get more bottom.
