This motor is a beast in truggy. Its lacking alittle in top end power, but I think putting the 2035 pipe on it will wake that up. I broke it in with a 2050 os. Still have alittle to lean out on top, and just put the other shimm in it, so I'll report back after this weekend.
I see in your sig you race an rc8T, if you are using the stock gearing, it will lack top end with about every motor, if you have a 52 spur, try it. The team uses the 52/14 gearing with the Reedy most places, and I have even been liking a 54/15 at some bigger tracks. Stock gearing is 54/14.
