Yeah my reedy lasted me about 4 gallons at the most, but i had a blast with it. When i was practing at a track agaist a guy with a RB C6 I could see him almost crwal out of a trun as for the reedy I could slowly power through it. And for a beginer its great getting to know the power band. Now im in the same boat trying to replace engine bearings. My friend gave me some great advice of getting them out, and going to try it this weekend when ( hopefully I get my package)
