Thats what we are there for! As well we were more then happy to help you out and i'm very happy to hear you had a good time.I talked to chad agan today and he knows about it and i let him know you will be contacting them on geting it fixed.
chad, i was racing at revelation tonight and i believe one of the trinity guys called you about my engine. It appears its leaking fuel out of the carb boot. I cleaned it up before the last heat and again before the race and both times there was buildup of muck where it appears to be leaking. If you can pm me your number, or address. I leave Tuesday morning for a week, so i can just send the engine in for an inspection if that's ok with you guys.
On another note, thanks to the guys at revelation for helping me out and pitting for me, made my first race experience nice and fun! i was trying to look for you before i had to leave, my friend was in a hurry and i didn't get a chance to thank you guys.
here's an update,this should give you a better idea of what the issue is, i took the engine out, looks like its definitely leaking from the carb boot. i also snapped a pic of the front bearing, it appears the fuel was dripping from the carb down to the bearing as well.

I just wanted to say tat I donot run 1 ofthese mills and havent seen 1 run till yesterday. And at my local track there are quite a few Electric converins there that they let run with us nitro guys "which I dont dissagree wth BUTI think they should have 1 or 2 rules" and the only mil "Nitro" that is that I've seen with "off the line power" even close to the electric guys was this kid running 1 of these mills. I just got a new mill myself and I am now the only "Nitro" truggy that runs a .21 and most guys run those OS .28 mills and I was pulling them down the straight!!!.... I cant wait for the Buggy I back-ordered to come out so I can run buggy. My new mill will be going in to that.

Run time...
I was practicing the other day at my home track, Wolcott Hobby in CT. I timed one of my runs. At this time, I was running the Sirio 2057 exhaust. Now, there was a couple times when I flipped 'er on her lid and had to get off the stand to flip over...but all in all, I was on the track, one tank, for a close to 13 minutes! Yesterday, we had a club race with 10 min quals. I was going to try and see if I could run with no pit. Unfortunately, I had a really bad day. Other things went wrong and I wasn't able to test mileage out during actual race conditions like I had wanted to.

Guys, the fully modded Trinity X-Tech .21 is now available to the public! Get em now. They will go fast I am sure. I run one and it is from another planet. I think Ed reverse engineered alien technology from area 51 for this one!

I love mine. Ran it Sunday. EASLIY the fastest buggy there by a long shot. I was pulling brushless buggies on the straight. People said it snapped like an electric conversion. Never touched the needled once all day. Each qualy the temps were dropping 5 degrees. It locked in at 230 and stayed there. I cant say enough how good these mills are. It is like having an unfair advantage. First time I have pulled wheelies in a buggy! You simply will not believe the acceleration. AND IMO the power it puts down is useable as Ed seems to have smoothed it out very well.
