Love those 27.2cc motors! Great rev range and enough torque to pull small gears for high speed! I just picked up a 5sc and have a 32cc otw. Though, I have a feeling I'll be using my 27.2cc for the track.
Absolutely, this motor has been sitting around since 2008. I got deployed and had to put all my 5th scale stuff in storage. I'm out now and working from home due to the Pandemic so all I have is time. It's awesome to get back into the Hobby. Just wish it was more people in my area...
 
There may be more people than you think. I thought the same for a while til I found a group near me but hey if not you'll have a reason to buy another 1 or 2 so others can come play! lol.

Few more pictures of the build.. Waiting on spur gear damper bushings..

Check Facebook groups bro. I ran by myself for like a year and a half till I got on FB and met some guys that live nearby. Now we get together like once a week if not more, to run.

Absolutely--As soon as I posted this message I found this....I met a few of the guys yesterday at a RC garage sale and they seem to be pretty cool. Most are not brappers though, they like that instant electric feel. I love gas....Hopefully it will be a good time :)
