What are you running/getting on
each engine? I am in El Paso, so I was thinking the weather conditions are similar to AZ.
1) pipe/header
2) venturi size
3) fuel
4) glow plug
5) clutch setup
6) temps
7) run times
Thanks in advance.
Congrats on your Victories too.
Sorry bud i didnt see this post.
On the Btt in my Buggy im runnin a 41021/9901 for the header and pipe with a 6.5 mm venturi, a lot of people use the 6mm for better fuel mileage but i like how the 6.5mm feels. for the plug i use a C6TGC and byron Fuels 30/9. Im using the losi 4 shoe clutch with 2 alum and 2 comp with 2 green and 2 black springs with a steel flywheel My temps are about 240 and im getting about 10.5 min on the run time , i can get more with a smaller venturi and a smoother throttle finger. This engine is super smooth, best buggy engine out there IMO.
On the Bonito in my truggy im running the 41021/9853 combo with 7mm Venturi and C6 Plug,same fuel. Also using the losi 4 shoe clutch with 2 alum 2 comp with 2 gold and 2 green springs with alum flywheel. Temps are about 260 but its still tight and its breaking in still. i havent been able to really test runtimes and the engine is slowly breaking in and also ive been to a different track every time i have ran this engine but so far im getting aprox 10 min.
