the 8mm IMO is a bit much. I think the motr would benfit in runtime as well as making the powerband a bit more linear with a smaller restrictor. a 6 or 6.5mm is as small as i would go though.

yeah I was thinking about a 7mm, do the ones from Sirio fit correctly? First Im going to lean it out a little and see how that goes. The motor is still a little tight so Im sure it will get better with some more fuel in it. 10+ runtime is nice but really Ill be happy with anything over 7.5.

wow

I have done well over 10 in my truggy. I went the whole 10 minute main and then did a lap or 2 after and still had fuel left in the bottom of the tank.

21 with a 053.

Colin how did you like the 2013 to the 053?

I think they are very similar. I will try them back to back tomorrow night to see how they compare.

My order just arrived from Trinity and since the truggy pipe is on backorder I wanted to find out what the best alternative pipe is for the full mod .24. I've got a 053, novarossi 9886, trinity 2013 and a 086 on my extech buggy motor. The .21 extech that's in my buggy was in my truggy so if the 086 proves to much in the buggy I was going to switch to the 053...

Ex Tech power TQs @ RCDriver Race Of Champions/Wolcott Hobby in the hands of youngster Kyle Rhodes!!! I'll post main results and probably have some pics tomorrow or Monday. On a personal note, I tried running Truggy today. First time I have ever raced them, though I did beat around some last summer with a Muggy . I found a very good deal on a used X1 CRT, took all my gear out my my buggy, including my Ex Tech mill. After three rounds of 10 min quals, I B Q'd I havn't had such good results this summer with my buggy so I havn't "tooted my own horn" much...but I hafta say I am very happy and excited about the mains tomorrow.

I am at 4 gals now . The motor needs new front bearing and a connecting Rod. Still got lot pinch left. The motor did start losing gas mileage. That is why I took the motor apart.

Joe, this is the pic I was telling you about...
