As far as I know the Full Mod version is only available to Team Drivers so far. I am sure they will be at retailers soon. But honestly not very many people can truly use the power that these things put down. Get trhe Race tuned version now and don't look back.

There is most definitely such a thing as too much power !!
I have a 2.4 HP 87 oz/in modified Picco P3 28 that I sometimes run, and I can most definitely say there is such a thing as too much power... I really cant complain much about control as the tires never have enough traction for going fast LOL , and if by any chance the tires do gain good grip the clutch just starts to slip, by the time I am near the end of a tank the clutch is so hot its slipping like a mofo.... by the time I run 2 or 3 tanks the bottom end goes completely dead as the shoes have now melted thru and my clutch springs are starting to snap causing my shoes to start hanging up into the bell..Sometime during tank 4 the clutch bell bearings grenade sending my CB into a fatal collision with my spur gear..... IF the modded .24 is making 2.3 HP then its going to be an absolute animal of a motor, better stock up on clutch parts, as your going to need em !!!!!!!!!!!

I ran my .21 in the buggy for the first time today. WOW!!!! I thought it was fast in the truggy, but it is on another level in the buggy!!
I will be softening up the clutch on Saturday to try to tame it down a little.

Default 21 questions

Just put my .21 trinity in my truggy. Located down in S. Fla, and its basically 80 - 90 degrees with about 80% humidity (closer to 95% after it rains, which lately has been every day at 3:00 PM).

Ran the engine with a ExTech Turbo Medium (TRI40112) Plug and when the car idled it just shut off.

So then I switched to Turbo Hot (TrI40110) Plug and that seems to have resolved the issue....verdict is still out until I can get a damn tank through before it starts to rain again. But at first glance, the car was just plain faaaaaast without any issues...had to lean both top and bottom, again, I suspect due to our world famous humidity down here.

If its clear and dry tomorrow, I am going out to our short track....anyone have any suggestions......Prior posts attribute plug failure/shut down to oil in the engine...ideas/suggestions welcomed...thx.

skt1969 - the medium plug makes the engine a little harder to tune but increases runtime.

Chad, I am heading to Leisure Hours this Sunday for indoor race if Deiter is around. I had much better luck yesterday.

Tip #1 Never try to build and install linkage when you are part way through a half rack

This thing is so wicked. I have some work to to try and get that power to the ground. Ed out did himself for sure. And man, I hope I NEVER have to break in another engine! That alone is worth the price of admission. This will be the mill that the rest get compared too

I have a tracking number for the .24's there almost here.. if you do not have one on back order, you may want to do it now before there all gone!
