you get one for free when you switch to associated (plastic, tho)

sorry, i had to jump in on that one...

Hey Ron, I hear that there's a Kortz edition in the works (or is it WERKS?) any idea when and how much?

Truhe and the some of the team guys just dremel the plastic off the ceter diff where is screw goes in (just up to it ) now i can run my carb almost straight and it fixed the problem

Thanks for this info

heys guys and ron, first id like to say i was looking for my first "race" motor and after reading many pages of this thread i knew i couldnt go wrong, people love it, the man behind it loves it and stands behind unlike anything ive seen in this hobby!! so its on its way from amain and just had a question we normally run %30 in our cars but my last trip to the l/h/s they only had byrons gen 2 %20...i can get %30 before sunday(next race) but is there anything wrong with breaking it in on the %20 and then switch once i get the %30 for race day??

You won't have any issues doing that! "Break In" specific fuels are 20%!

ok after break-in before i put in the 30% should i reset to factory and retune it or just put it in and adjust tune from there?

It certainly won't hurt to richen it up a little and retune when you go to 30%!

Hey Ron,

Any idea when the next shippment of Werks 30% will be hitting AMainHobbies?

Ron, on your advice i ordered two buggy turbo #5's from amain today

Yep after an amazing amount of delays caused by all of the weather mess on the east coast I'm finally happy to say that their shipment is going out tomorrow. It will be in stock again 4 days afterward, sorry about any problems that might have been caused by them being out of stock for a while!

Regards,

Ron

Let us know what you think! I love them

Ron

I sent it again today, and I also sent a message to you on here. [email protected] correct?

thanks,

Brad

Ha...no problems here! It's gonna be my first experience with Werks fuel! I live in CT and don't see your fuel here. It's gonna cost an arm and leg for shipping, but I'm going to order two cases!

thanks

been running werks fuel since 05 .best around, cooler temps and longer run time. the best part is after taking my motors apart after 2 to 4 gallons, nice gold coat of oilt just like new. thanks ron

+1 the lube package in the WERKS fuel is Xlnt< Nice to know your engines are getting protection I have yet to see a fuel that coat's the internals like WERKS fuel..

Ron, I previosuly ran VSPECS(both regular and a speed). The B5 is an OVERALL more powerful and responsive motor. The Bottom hits hard but its a controllable chaos. Its not a light switch. The 2057 reallly smoothes it out in the buggy. Great combo for buggy. The top end is good, maybe not the fastest down the straight but definately not getting pulled by anything. After talking with Mike(bataille) he suggest a JP4 to unlock a little bit more top if its needed. I have not been on a straight that I really needed more. I think the biggest difference between the B5 and Vspec is the tuning and longevity. The B5 requires smaller increments on the needles. Once I got that figured out, she was Money!!!! The wear is amazing I've got about 2.5 - 3 gallons(Werks 30%) on each and they still have good compression and the internals look good. I am very impressed in what can been had for $200 bucks. I've got 3 B5's and they all run very good. You keep making these engines and I'll keep buying them. PERIOD. They have been reliable, powerful and the customer service you provide is top notch. Vspecs had always been the "safe" choice for me, I could tune them and i knew they would perform. THe B5 has filled that position now. For the price of a vspec I can get the B5 and a pipe. Werks for me!!!!!
