she already plays Drunko....I just don't get my guys night out very often...strange how that works....oh yeah, I get to leave the house and "go play" everyday from 8-5, M-F....that's it.

Kids, don't show this post to your mother, or we'll never go racing again. I mean it.

Now, back on topic about new Revo engines from SH.

As they say on Pinks, "We have a race".

Now, will you guys be racing for money, or vehicles?

Revo2K, you blew a rod in an SH .28? I'm guessing this was when you were a newbie right?

Not really. It flipped over when I landed a big jump, and the crappy switch I was running flipped to off. It went full for about 20 seconds while I ran to it (I was about 3/4 block away lol) and then I heard a pretty 'ping!' and that was that.

I've heard problems with the SH .28 but I've also heard good things about all of their other motors, but not one about the .28. I remember when Revo2k had that it took him forever to break it in cuz it wouldn't start, then when it did it wouldn't stay running after he got it to stay running the fuel would start to boil in the carb causing it to shut down yet again.

Revo2K, so let me understand this, you had a motor under no load at wide open throttle for 20 seconds? And you're surprised that the rod let go? LOL!!!!!!!
