I have been racing 1/8th and 1/10th for over 20 years. Used all know engines, cars, pipes, fuel and clutches worth using. Maybe in the future another engine company may come-out with something better. For now the Nova range is still the leader of the pack when purchasing an engine off the shelve.
i know nothing about engins but when i looked at picco i was told rods are sus i hate engins that nead matenice it i seem 2 get more hours out of $120 rossi than more $ engins have trouble with tuning or lack of ha ha
