Lance, I must say I am now a true believer. First time out with the new a852 and it performed flawlessly! I had a bit of a time controlling the new-found power in these motors, somehow it kept managing to help me break front arms at very critical times. Some of my fellow racers took notes on how well it ran with so little fuel in it. Thanks a ton!

I have done this many times already, but one more time won't hurt. Thank you Lance. He changed my thinking on what modding an engine actually is or can be. It's not always about more power, bottom end or top end. Lance did and Alpha A852 for me to run in truggy. I don't know exactly what was done, that's Lance's secret, I was told is was cleaned out. What he did to that motor was made it very smooth, and still have enough power to hang with other drivers. Fuel milage is great, running on a loamy track with a decent groove, 30 second lap times, 11 to 11:30 minute run time.

If you want more power, or same power with better fuel milage, send your motor to Lance. He will take care of you. Pretty quick to, I got my motor back in 8 days from when I sent it.

Same here man!! I've been racing Lance's mods for a while now, most recently he did an S352 Alpha for my truggy. I also have one of his S852s, and before that he did a couple of Argus engines that still scream!! I've had some bad experience with other modder's engines, but I couldn't be happier with these gems...the thing I appreciate the most is that they are RELIABLE!! I don't have to ever worry about having engine problems cutting my race day short...if I don't finish a main then it's either something else broke on the truggy, or most likely the clown behind the controller making stupid mistakes.

If you've ever considered having your engine modified then give Lance a call, tell him what you're looking for, and let him tailor an engine to your specifics. You'll be happy you did!!

I must agree with everything Mark said except for run times. I just like that feel of an electric car this motor has. I just cannot keep my finger off the trigger long enough to get the good run times but they are the best motor I have strapped in my Mugen! Thank you Lance for your handiwork.

....lol Yea if you drive strapped the whole time your mileage will suffer, but it is fun though. If you can control the urge to sqeeze they get killer runtimes.
