Always keep in touch no matter what happens with your RC racing.

Thanks,

Thanks Lance. Actually had no intention of racing tonight. Guess a new layout was put in and I heard 1/8 was going to turn out. Managed tq and win with the picco. 8 min no put easy! Very pleased wish I could make it out more it was nice to do so.

My last big race was Saturday. All I can say is I did the best I could do, and the only thing different I should have done was be a little less aggressive coming off one double.

This was at the Midwest Nitro Series Finals held at Leisure Hours in Joliet, IL. My first two qualifiers were second place overall finishes, using qual points. Only two other drivers could have dropped me down to third, and one of the drivers got TQ in the third round and put me to a third place start for the main. I was very close to being able to one stop our 20 min main.

I had a great start, moved up to second and stayed there for the first 5 minutes, then the little errors put me back to forth. My pitman (Pa) told me it was time to come in, and I told him I am one stopping it. I had nothing to lose and was thinking I could gain a spot or to back. One stop worked and I finished 3rd in the race.

After all six races in the series, I ended up 4th overall, not bad at all for my first and last full year of truggy.

I have been very impressed with the engines. Power, milage and reliability.

Thank you Lance for all of your hard work. Even though I am retiring from RC, I will still be around race directing, I will still talk highly of what you are doing with these engines.

Hey with one pit in a 20 minute main, 3rd place finish and 4th overall in the series, I would say you did great

Thanks so much for the update. And be sure to keep in touch.

Lance

Lance B6 Pro headed your way tomorrow. It's completely disassembled but I sent it all in for inspection.

Here's what the top of the piston looks like inside the sleeve. Take notice at 10 and 2 O clock.

Most guys are reporting 10:30 or so. A lot of guys have been consistantly doing 10 mnute pits in buggy and easily in truggy.

Some guys are getting around 9 minutes in buggy.

So The feedback so far from customers is 9-10:30 so far.


But all depends on the variables. It all depends on driver and track conditions.

BUt they get as good or better mileage than any other engine we gave tested or ran.
