. 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.
Would love to be there, but we have the annual Cairns Cup mid August, Sponsered by the Aussie Distributor of GO engines, Massive Mods, and I will be involved in the setting up and running of the event.
It is great to see the response I have recieved from people in other patrs of the world on this thread. I am 60 years old, a retired Automotive Mechanic,(28 years in the trade arena), and spent the last 16 years before retirement as a TAFE Automotive Teacher. The info I have gained from this thread is worth all the books and teachings I have ever taught: Just goes to show: you can teach an old dog new tricks!! RC engines are a "breed of their own". As memtioned in a respone from another member earlier, I do run NOVA ROSSI (BUGGY 4 Factory TUNED), but after running The new GX11, and finding it far easier to tune, I am about to run GO exclusively. The NOVA ROSSI has the run time advantage, but If you dont' put the buggy on it's lid, all fine.
Once again, thanks for the friendly response, it is a pleasure to be welcomed to the thread. Will keep in touch in the future, and If anybody ever has a chance to get to CAIRNS, AUSTRALIA. Please feel free to look me up. WE do have a great track, just go to the Cairns, RC TECH thread site for some great photos we have posted on the site recently. Once again. thanks for the friendly replies: Greatly appreciated.
