Sorry to hear that, Hope shes gets well soon Ed :cry: Thanks Cooter,Ya me too

I just talked to Chad, all that want to run some practice laps today come on out. The suns out and the track is dry

Chad,
Unfortunately I don't think I will need to learn your trick to get some compression back for my motor, as it really ate dirt last time when the carb was falling. I think I figured out too late that something was wrong...
I've tried to run it today, and I've discovered that the case is cracked !!! :( :drunk: :confused: That's why I couldn't keep it running at idle without the glow plug ignitor. Not enough compression... My piston and sleeve are ruined too... Lots odf dirt inside...

So I guess my engine is dead...

What is a good engine to get for the money ?
Is the WS7 II good? What is the difference b/w a C-5 and a WS7 II?

Is there anybody that is in the need of a Carb 21B or a Nova Pro Head (+ standard cooling head) for a OS .21 RZ-V01B ? These are still in good shape, but I won't use them...

Mike

Hey mike,I would go with a s7 by rb.The only difference from the ws72 is the crank.This is the same motor that one of the guys from rnl were using and it screamed.Realy sorry to here of your motor troubles.I have already had my share this year.The ws7 and the c5 are very different motors.MIke go here to do some reserch.

P.S. I checked its in stock you could have it for next week. HEHEHEH :dude:

...have the WS7II for $309.99...

Holy Crap! You guys are spending that kind of dough on engines!? I got the impression from the number of engines you guys have been blowing up that these things were like a dime a dozen.

You 1/8th scalers are impressive.... :eek:

Well since we didnt race today I went and got all are stuff packed and ready to head north on tuesday nite(if doc is done with kellys arm).So no racing for me next weekend.Maybe I will take the buggy with me.The weekend of june 5th-6th I plan on racing the 5th at RnL and 6th at woor.Anybody else want to go down to play with the RnL boys?

It's been quite the weekend injuries and hospitals......
Eileen's in the hospital tonight because they think she had a heart attack.
They ran a series of tests, and they found something suspicious, so they
decided to keep her for the next few days.

.

Man my freind I feel for yha.I hope she is ok!You hang in there to,I know it can be a bit tough.I hope everything turns out ok!

Man John I hope she will be ok you guys will be in my prayers and let her know were thinking of her. :rolleyes:

You 1/8th scalers are impressive.... :eek:[/QUOTE]



No I believe it borders on INSANITY, heheheh

But theres no greater rush than clampin one of those babies and rippin down the staight-away and driftin it through the burm at the end, YEA BABY!!!!!

. John, I wish Eileen and you the best and hope every thing turns out for you.

John, Mary and I will keep Eileen and your family in our thoughts and prayers as you go thru this time of uncertainty. If there is any thing we can do to help just give me a call.

John,

I hope she's ok and tell her that all the GLRC racers are keeping you in their thoughts.

$310? and that's a good price... Hummm
I guess I'll do a little research on what is a little more reasonable to spend on a motor... But again, we're INSANE, so who knows what's gonna happen next...:dude:

Anybody with a recommandation on a decent motor for around ~$200-$250?

Rich, what kind of price do you think House Of Hobbies will have on the WS7 II? Do you think they'll beat that?

If I can sell the head and the carb, that might help me to spend the cash for the new motor. Anybody interested ?

Well, I will know a little more about what I want next week, I guess...

So, I have no engine for my 1/10th scale nitro sedan (no pipe either), no engine for my 8th scale and I need a 19T for my TC3...

Do I need motors or what? LOL (but not that loud...) :cool:

CU,
Mike :wave:

Does anubody knows anything about that engine :
http://acehardwarehobbies.com/2.2/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=108_115_168&products_id=2517

Pretty decent price... for a 2.35 Hp

How many Hp is the S7 II and WS7 II ?
Just need to compare what you get for the money...

What about that Rex P5 :

Any info appreciated...
Thanks,

Mike

Well I havent had any luck with picco engines.But swints seems to run good.And as far as a rex goes.Its going to be hard to find parts for them caus trinty was there importer and they are not importer,but I am seing alot of parts for them on line.I herd that dan has one that he runs but I seen a c5 in his buggy the last time.I would go for this.

http://acehardwarehobbies.com/2.2/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=108_146_152_153&products_id=5710
Its way to much motor for the price!

Like i said.the only difference between the s7 and the ws72 is the crank.Go here to get the low down on the specs.
http://www.rbproducts.com/index.php?L=En

If you look who has the best all around running, idling, power, and reliability I think its the rb out there thats why thats going to be my next choice its pricy but worth it :thumbsup:

Hey guy's, listen, I really appreciate everybody's concern.
At the moment she's being monitored on several machines and
is in good hands at our local hospital. I'll know more tomorrow.

Once again..... Thanks

Well this was a crappy sunday!!!!! My week seems all screwed up now since I didnt race..... as for going down to R-L on the 5th I'm all for it and I think we should get more WOOR guys to go give em He!!...Mike.. Sorry to hear about your motor... One thing to do befor ya strap anyother motor in the car is clean your pipe cuz thier might be dirt stuck in it from going threw the motor... Also let me know if you need a hook up on a RB.. I would recomend the WS7-2 for ya......

Count me in on the 5th to R-L. That would be fun!

Get the S7 and take the money you were to spend on the WS72 and buy tires....the S7 is a great motor and is as fast as just about anything out there. I have ran these engines with good luck and reliability. I am no trying the P5 to be different but ...RB is probably the best route for best bang for your buck. BTW the RB 3 port, 5 port , and 7 port all share the same cases so you can interchange the p/s with your choice of power. If anyone is interested Dan Cook has a rebuilt new S7 for sale ......

Count me in on the 5th to R-L. That would be fun! Sweet we have four now,J Fast,Restricted_GT,Nolan31 and Wreckscuba :dude: Come on guys a few more and we can take over the place :thumbsup:

You guys do know your first class is free :wave: at Rnl second class you have to payfor.

Thanks Chad,
I will sure clean the pipe thoroughly before using it again.
What is the best product to clean it ? Gasoline? Nitro fuel ? Motor Cleaner spray ?

The more I look around for motors, the more I like the RBs !!!
Now, do you think I need the extra power from the WS7 compare to the S7 ?
I'm not sure I have the driving skills yet to really gain from it right now. On the other hand, if I do get better at driving that super handling K-car, I wouldn't like to have to buy another motor to be able to chase your tail... :cool: jk...
Well, I guess I just have to make up my mind. Also check your PM Chad.

Thanks guys, :thumbsup:
Mike

But I'd be interested to come.
