I finished 3rd in my first Arena Truck race today using a $99 Go 3-port engine. The engine only had a gallon of fuel through it, I broke it in with PowerMaster 25% and today switched to Nitro Juice 30%. The engine ripped, I am impressed how this "cheap" engine can push a Truggy around. Honestly I can't imagine how well the Race 5/7 port engines do, right now the 3-port is enough for our track and my driving ability. I am liking the Go engines though, they seem to hold their tune well, even switching fuels had no real effect on it, we just did some tweaks in the morning warm-up that worked out well for the rest of the day.


What do you lot think of the Go Technology .25 6 Port Race Engine for Truggy use? Too much? Stick with a .21?

How would a .21 5/7 port race stack up in comparison to the .25 standard? Not sure if I should stay the course with .21 race engines or look at something with more displacement.

I am just looking forward right now, not planning on changing out the Go .21 3-port sport any time soon.

Edit.. another reason I ask about the .25 is that it's fairly cheap by comparison.
