Qualified 3rd overall in truggy out of a field of 12 in only my second time ever racing a truggy and 6th overall in a field of 25 with the buggy. I was very happy with my results after 2 rounds of heats but I blew a front diff in my truggy during the main and apparently forgot how to drive my buggy the main as well I kept getting jammed up in traffic and flipping instead of working my way around and it seems I caught every rut on the track and flipped over during the 12 minute buggy main. I'm pretty sure I finished last but I was too pissed to look at the heat sheet. Both engines were perfect but for the guy controlling them. It was still fun though and with 100+ racers showing up now at Fear Farm, every race is a big event. Very pleased with all my clocked engines and just gives me one less thing to worry about on race day.
great to hear dude ! what is the Plus4 doing ? in buggy or Truggy ?

It's in the Truggy with an M2C set-up. No weights in the flywheel, reg, hard shoes, 2.95 and 2-1.0 springs. It's an awesome engine and has more than enough power to fling the truggy around. Runtimes are not there yet cause it's still new but since you broke it in for me it's is race tuned and rocking hard!

Hey Neal, how does the power band of the Clocked Werks B5 compared to the B6? Which is better suited for a buggy?

B6 for sure...it is pretty much as powerful, but comes into the powerband smoother....

James are you running the CLocked B5 in a buggy? If so, I would love to know your clutch set up.

I just sold my truggy for a buggy but kept the Clocked B5 Pro. It needs to tammed down quite a bit

M2C flywheel with all weights. Regular hard shoes, 2-.90 and 2-.95 springs. Its very controllable with tractable power everywhere.

I heard 600 c.c.'s of fuel run through it on the break-in bench,
over the phone. It sounded sweet. I can't wait to add one to
my arseneal.
No X7 for me. The CRE RB "Fire Clocker" is my choice between
the two. Great price too.

My clocked 25XZ ran flawless today. 1st full raceday with it. Ran 10 minute race without pitting. Great truggy engine! Even when track got real greasy late in the day i was able to tip toe around the track with it, lol. It's definately like a really stout .21, not like a .28. I believe it revs just as high or higher than my clocked B5.

Just finished on a great note for the year with my clocked b5 Pro. IMO best truggy engine hands down. Put the nova 17011 front bearing in, OS carb, and it's perfect! Long run times, awesome smooth powerband, and low to top power that will beat any other engine out there! 5 and half gallons and still going strong!

Depending how I like the nova in buggy, I may have to pick up a clocked b6 pro next year!
