Engine for a Truggy?
I don't race, I mostly bash or hit the track on an open practice night. I'm looking for a basher engine around $150 to $200. Currently the truggies got a Picco .27 in it, with a tuned pipe (don't know what pipe, its unlabled and I don't know what it is) And while its decently quick down low with great throttle response it kind of falls flat on the top end. I do have a JP2 pipe for another project on the way so I might try that on there and see if that works for me. But some recomendations would be good.

I'll have to consider it, but I wasn't planning on buying now. I just dropped $375 on the CRT, another $50 for a JP2 pipe, and about $100 on other stuff this month for other RC projects that i have yet to post about.

The CRT needs a few upgrades first, like the CNC Alu. Chassis braces, and the Z - brace to stiffen it up. I bent the rear center ds on a hard landing. Still plenty workable but I don't want to bend the chassis (thankfully its still flat). Little Toys: Hyper One Seven | Inferno GT | Jammin X1cr | Jammin CRT Pro | 1989 Batmobile Replica |

I don't doubt it, however right now i dropped too much money this month. I do not have enough money to do it.
If its still available next month I will contact him. But right now i'm not going to beg him to hold it till i get the money. Little Toys: Hyper One Seven | Inferno GT | Jammin X1cr | Jammin CRT Pro | 1989 Batmobile Replica |

Well, its possible, I just need to slow down a bit when it comes to spending. I still have chassis upgrades to do to the CRT. It was an RTR, so it has the plastic braces which do squat cause they bend so easy. I think I'm going to order the Dace braces for now.

I just bought the JP2 pipe and its going on my rally car conversion so I can't let that go. I think its a good deal, i just can't spend any more this month on RC stuff.
The BCE chassis sounds VERY nice though. Once again $$$ is an issue. Little Toys: Hyper One Seven | Inferno GT | Jammin X1cr | Jammin CRT Pro | 1989 Batmobile Replica |

I cut all my CC's up about 1 year ago. I live on cash and savings now. No credit left. I will be debt free by Feb of 2009, and that includes about $22,000 in school loan debt as well.

Well, keep in mind it has a Picco .27 now. So its certainly not slow, though its not fast either.
Bascially I'm looking for engines with more Umph than the picco, but without spending a lot upwards. I can get a Axial .28 spec 1 for cheap, and I still have 2 Team Infinity .27 3ports just laying around. I will probably run the truck as it for now, but later use it to break in the 3ports. |
