.Have to agree with all info above. These engines seem very resileant and hold their tune very well. Am running NITRO-X SSS 11% oil, 25% Nitro, 97T O'Donnell Plug, (use a 87T during inital break-in). Run at winter temp: Average 21 degrees C, 50% Humidity; Summer temps will average 32 degrees C, 86% Humidity. Currently in winter season, Will be interestig to see how the engine holds tune in summer:
Thanks to all on the thread: I have picked up heaps of great info from same, and the N.Z. GO website .Thanks again.

Hey Snooks, great to hear your liking the GXII . It is a sweet motor.
Are you going down to the FEMCA Truggy Champs on the Sunshine Coast this August ? Be good to catch up with you, along with Flanno and co.
