Just to let you guys know, Chris ran my 5 port this weekend that has about 2 gallons on it, and after a warm up lap, 5 minute heat, and the cool down lap, he was coming back with half of a tank left, very impressive. He could have pitted at the 10 minute mark but with this race being 45 minutes it was not beneficial to push it.
He was leading when something caused it to flame over the big jump upon landing, which was the first flame that motor has ever seen. It may have been caused by something getting into the flywheel upon the flat landing.

, thanks for getting him hooked up

Are the tracks indoor and outdoor med bite or high or loamy, GO has a new Race Spec 3 port, it's a good motor. I'm running it know, but if you think more bottom is needed or thats what you like the 5 port is the ticket, if you like smooth linier bottom the 3 and 7 ports are good for that style, the 7 port will have more top than any of them, which it's hard using all the top it puts out, so i always recommend the 3 or 5 for buggy, but if your tracks are loose and loamy, the 7 is very smooth like the 3. An 053 is good on the 7 ports, and a 086, 2047, 053 works good on the 3 and 5. Hope this helps
Based on what you have said, I should look toward the 3 port race or the 5 port. I think the 7 port would be a bit out of my arena so to speak. I have been looking for a Go website. So far I have only seen them at Carolinas and A-Main. Neither have the 3 port available. Where else can I buy for a decent price?
Also saw the Jammin .21 was on sale at A-Main, but I'd better save that for another thread.

At the Presidents Day Race at Leisure Hours Raceway in Joliet, IL we had 57 buggies yesterday. Go Tech 5 ports took the TQ and win as well as 5th. Congrats to Cory Crosley and Ryan Rethy.

The winter track is indoor but way not heated. it's packed pretty good as I believe they use the same soil for that track as they do for the motocross guys next door. (probably clay type of some sort) When I was there two weeks ago there was some water sitting on the track from a roof leak. Was not draining at all. The summer track is outdoors and larger, but I don't know what the surface is since I haven't raced there yet.
