Force .28?
Just wondering what everyone thinks of the Force .28. I think i have heard that it is a big change from the .25 and the .26 (which were pretty much exactly the same). Is the power difference noticeable over the .25/.26? Is the .28 a cooler running motor than the previous forces? I guess it supposedly makes the Ravager do 50mph out of the box, that really got my attention because i have the violator, which is quite similar to the ravager (although i might have to change the stock gearing to actually make it go that fast of course). Is it worth the buy? Can the rotostart from my .26 fit the backplate on the .28? Or are there better engines out there in the $100-$200 range? Thanks

RE: Force .28?
I have a Violator too and I got it to go 50mph. By sitting inside of a vehicle and driving next to the it. So really the Ravager has more horse power than most .26 buggies. But they probably all go 45-50MPH. I would buy it to bash but definitely not to race. If your looking for a .26-.28 for $100-$200 a Wasp.26 would be good or a Wasp.28

RE: Force .28?
I been looking at the Sure Fire .32 and the Novarossi Rex .28 to put in my CEN Genesis. Both motors has less horse power then the original 5 hp motor that come with the Genesis but they both have more RPMs
Sure Fire .32
3.6hp @ 38,000rpm
for $200
or the
Novarossi Rex .28
2.85hp @ 33,500
for $350
Sure Fire .32
