Talking Piston/Sleeve

Good evening Ray A Racing

I sent you a piston/sleeve for resizing. This was a .28 and it wasn't really too bad, but, bad enough. You resized the pair and now they are back in the engine, break in done and running well. My original problem was no bottom end what so ever on the truggy. I think there were several issues with this truggy like composite clutch shoes, bad bearings all of which were new when installed. So, I changed and put a fresh set of bearings in, and a new clutch. Engine after break in did start to product more bottom end but, not as snappy as I had expected. Well, come to find out, the clutches was worn out because the shoes were some cheap soft metal shoes. Well, 3rd time was a charm, a fresh set of shoes, new bearings, and the truggy seems much better.

I still think the engine should product more gut wrenching bottom end so I am going to try a JP1 pipe to bring the bottom end online sooner.

Anyway. Thanks much for the resizing. I'm sure the engine needed it and I can tell the engine is more lively as before, there wasn't any power from the engine at all.

Thanks again.

I'll send more your way as they come up.

Ray - Just a quick note to say I ran Sunday using one of the 4 sets you did for me, and the motor ran better than when it was new. I couldn't be more pleased. As Ahnold would say, "I'll be back..." Thanks for the great service!!

Quite a few resizing guys are tooled by RayAracing. Second best isn't bad. I'd like to think that for the racer knowing their local resizer that which is tooled by RayAracing , their service should give them good results. I cant help not to like what I have done , still do now , and will continue to do in the RC racing business.

Bob(OH) first tooling order to go out next week.

Service orders went out this morning Mike(IN) Wayne(KS) Daniel(NYNY) Steve(CT) Houstons Engine Services(OR) JamesAR) Chad(IN)

Packages received today(going back in shop momentarily to work more) go out first thing Monday morning Kyle(FL) and Chris(MO)

Thanks guys

kind regards,

Ray

Thanks Ray

I got my piston and sleeve on Saturday and was able to put it in my truggy and do a break in before the main on Sunday of the Jconcepts Clash in Flowood, Mississippi.

My Bonito was making awesome power and was able to get a 5th place finish in the truggy A-main.
