I've heard of heat issues with the pipe being so close to the carb ? and of crankcase outerwears not fitting ? would never spend $1000 on that crap tbh. Much rather spend a bit more and get me a 40gt rcmax that will gap the poop out of all obr engines ?

 

[Seandonato73]

Yeah heard about what a was saying, plus hard to tune and very unreliable... just hear say that's why I asked.

 

[evssv]

yes he's had carb probs..?.....thk.he spent 600 on the freshly rebuilt engine...☹.and also a new carb.......☹.....

 

[DougStar]

Heat issues?

 

[evssv]

ahh...don't thk hes ran it enuff to get them yet...??
