Default Clocked B5

Alright guys just got done with my 4day race weekend at the PNB.This was the first race on the new Clocked b5 and man was that thing screaming.Tuning was so easy and the motor was dialed.I could have not asked for a better performance from an engine,more power then i could use but very easy to handle it.Thanks again to neal and john for such a great product and great customer service.

That mill will still be at our series races, so it didn't go far. It was like picking chocolate or vanilla, both were good, but I always have had a sweet spot for the picco Hoby

Hi all,

I did some testing this weekend out at the nitro pit. I tried several different glow plugs, restricters, and pipes.

I was running 1/8th buggy with the B6. I tried the 2013 pipe, and the novarossi 9901. Neither felt as good as the werks 2058.

I also tried different carb restricters. I tried a 6.5 and a 6.0. Both felt like they robbed power while i did not see any meaningful fuel mileage gains.

Anyways, to make a long story short, i went back to what i consider stock "7 restricter, werks 2058 pipe,werks 6 plug"

If i find anything i like better, ill be sure to post.

Just read a post in another Motor thread.Which got me thinking.How do you assign a value to not only the knowledge you get but the "availability" you receive when purchasing a Clocked motor? This individual went to a major race event with a motor that was new to him and from the sounds of it struggled all weekend with it. He either did not ask or could not find someone to assist him at the track. Getting the answers you need 2 or 3 days after the event is good,but wouldn't it have been nice to make a call to THE motor modder and have your answers at the track. I get the answers I need when they arise and so does every other owner of a CRE mill (204)487-3241..And yes, he actually answers the phone!!!Just fuel (30%) for thought....Brian
