As Yamaha mentioned they run hot are a PITA to tune, and fuel mileage isn't as good as even the Discovery.. The Power is pretty sepcatacular, but if you can't put it to the ground it is wasted.. Orion Alphas puts power to the ground as good or better then any engine I have ever had the pleasure of strapping to a RC car..

Yesterday at palm desert motor disco was great had prob. In frist qual. With motor bogging at first blip took apart after round one to air seal carb again and found idle screw broken went to pk aka pitpop and well he spent half an hour filing down the slide barrel and replacing my idle screw
what i didnt expect was that he tooj the time to clean the carb grease everything back up and show me a trick by gluing the boot ti the base. It was fabulous i put it back in my disco bench tuned it and then at second qual pitpop came over helpex me pit my car to make sure tune was good which it was best customer help from a rep of any rc product i have ever owned.
Oh yeah in my main the disco went 12 min. Main without pitstop actually about 12:30 by time got to pit lane came in at 241
once again big thanks to pitpop
Waz also cool to see him run in truggy class fun day at the toys 4 tots race in palm desert

That is one of the reason Paul and Cody are sponsored by Orion.. Good People helping out other good people.

Something I've found in RC racing, is most people will give you just about anything they have to keep you running. In no other sport hobby or profession have I seen anything like this..

I'd suggest the 2058 also. It'll still have some bottom end, just not as much as the 2013..
