As title says, anyone seen anything of SRE RC Customs on youtube??
From what I've watched he is mainly dealing with the 45cc Rovan engine.
Another thing I noticed was one of the lads running a Baja is not able bodied and comes up with an ingenious way of using the pull start.

He seems to not have full use of his hands/fingers, so that bit of rope means he can use his hand/wrist to get it started.
Might be of use to those in chairs or limited mobility in their hands.

I am the guy in the video 5th scale ripper on YouTube. I broke my neck when I was 15. I have 10% use of my hands. But I find ways of doing it all myself. I have been in the RC Hobby since 1986. Raced 8th scale buggy and dirt oval. Been tuning and running 2 stroke most of that time. So I am far from being a newbie ! I have been testing engine for SRE CUSTOMS since last May. Wade and came up with the monster 45 together. We made a 45 that has great high compression and higher rpm rang. Average rpm between 14660 and 15800 no problem. It pulls vary hard even in my heavy rovan max 5t ts that weighs 63 pounds with fuel.
Wade is a great guy that cares about each and every engine he builds and his customer service is second to none. You email or call him you get a fast and timely response !!! Any thing you would like to know just hit me up !! I am all about the Hobby not the BS THAT GO WITH SOME TIMES !!! Have great day from 5th scale ripper and the SRE FAMILY

I just enjoy watching his videos fella.
At the time of this original posting there was discussions about a member who was not fully able bodied (apologies, not sure on correct term) and pull starts.
I happened to stumble across SRE, and so it was mentioned on here.
I'm sorry to hear about your neck, but it looks like your still enjoying life to the full, keep at it fella.

Also welcome to the forum, and post some pics of your rigs, we all love pics.
 
I watched a bunch of his videos. I like his out of the box thinking and willing to experiment with different parts and posts his findings regardless if it works or fails.
 
Here are my sre rigs! 4wd chassis is running a full mod rovan 71cc by SRE customs. Baja FT is running a SRE customs rovan Monster 45cc
