lol, I was also testing out the durability of my gear, not just the engine
lol..but seriously, I know I drove like crap in that vid..unfortunatelyI haven't been to the races much this season due to work. I did manage to do mileage testing at the races that I did attend, and I know that I ran a 10 minute race ( and won ), and still had 50ml of fuel left in my tank under the conditions I ran in. I don't crash ( or spin my tires ) as much when I race(lol), and I would feel confidant pitting anywhere between 12 and 14 minutes depending on my mileage that day.
We run 20 minute A mains, and 10 minute B mains. I pit once during A mains, and I don't pit if I end up in the B mains. The video doesn't do this engine any justice because of the trigger-man
, but you can see how well it runs, how it screams up top, how it can run so long on it's lid-I can walk instead of run when I need to flip it over, and how well it idles..it's hard to see the power because of the lack of traction, but trust me when I say it's fantastic.
This glow plug has seen more than a gallon of fuel, and the engine has seen 5 gallons, with no new parts yet. I'm going to the track tomorrow, I'll likely put another gallon through it tomorrow lol..I don't get to make it out too often ( 100 km drive for me to get there ), so I make it worth my while
