Default light-med tight resizing

Thanks again,

Russ, Glad to help. Plese give us an update race day results.

I ran a freshened up B5 today, resized a tad lighter than the light-med resizing done for you. Your Plus 4 was looser before service, requiring a 2+1/2tenth resizing. Mine was resized 1 tenth (1+1/2 tenths max) and re-broke in 3 tanks, 4th tank ran qualifier. Good run.

Got to the track late and left early with not much time to race with setting up house for graduation party.

Ready to rockNroll again tomorrow, tooling a few guys, and reconditioning-resizing as many as come in.

Thanks Guys

Thanks Donnie. I'm fine now. Still cant pit and marshal very well , and definitely wont be playing volleyball at our graduation party today. Fortunately my work reconditioning-resizing / building resizing tooling does not take that much body strength. Hows your engine running?

This week will be in tool+die shop most of the day and home shop thru evening. Please feel free to call my cell or email me with any questions you guys may have.

Aww man all that work and the race rained out! . I will tell you since the last resizing you performed on my Plus 4 that it has 4 A-main wins. And there is some really good racers there with good motors. One thing for sure is I wont be worried about my motor next race.

Monty,
I had a good run with HOUSTONS modified N21R . VERY SMOOTH CONTROLABLE POWER!!! 2nd place A main. Not many entries, Only 6 guys running nitro buggy...hehee...but hey Good snap for the jumps and Didn't miss a beat all day Just a little rich on the high speed needle setting durring the main because my pit man got confused in the start and temped me 250F and reTHOUGHT my instructions to lean it 1/8 turn and went the other way. I found the engines tuned sweetspot durring 2nd qualifier resulted 267F coming off track. Nonetheless,The engine was stable and ran strong all day, and I feel it will go MANY additional gallons without a concern. OK mabee I should worry a bit about all these young guys at my local track GLENWOOD RC that are very fast now.

We're having a great summer here in Western New York

RayA on vacation for 1 week July 25th thru 31st More tooling oders can go out this week. http://www.rayaracing.com/prodtooling.htm

Any questions guys....just call, text, or email me

If I send you a piston and sleeve out tommorow from Oregon, do you think you could get it done and back to me before you go on vacation? Just curious, because I have a race on the 30th that I need the engine for.

You will need to ship USPS Priority that which should get here by Thursday. Arriving Friday will still get you serviced and return shipped this week.
