I have had the chance to race with adam and test several times in preperation for the worlds. He showed me some very valuable information that has helped me since running the GRP .21.

When breaking in my engines( I have 4) none of them have ever reached 250 and when tuned properly will not run much over 200 degrees. The most I have ever seen Adams run temp wise is about 210...maybe. I would think running it at 250 might come at the expense of the engine life. If you race with Adam or in his area let him look at it and he will put you on track. Once you see him tune, it is very easy to replicate.

Again, I may have missed where he told you that.

Take care.

I happen to see him at the JBRL races, even though hes too busy working on his own, and rhonda's buggy n truggy too.. So I rather not bother him at the tracks on race days. But since that I am moving closer, for a job, I am sure I will run into him at Reveloution, Thunder Alley tracks.. hopefully if i am there at right time, right day. I am looking to get another grp 21 tuner engines for spare and backup. but damn glow plugs, why are they so expensive.;
