Or there is a rotostart backplate you can get separate which is the same style as the TTR one i cant remember where but if you google it you will find it. I almost bought 1 for my OS30 but got the Nosram instead

Status: offline 		Thanks to all for the help, some guy told me that for racing is better a .21 engine than the .28 so why is that¿? he told me that with a .21 the truck handle better so if someone has a better idea than a .28 please tell me, an rb 523 is a good choice? i have a revo too so the pipe included in the rb 523 is not a waste i can use it in my revo

Status: offline 		Hows it going guys. I just fitted a two speed gearbox to my ST-1 and the pick up and top speed are incredible, the parts were worth waiting for. Ive seen footage of st-1s standing up on the back wheels after having a two speed fitted, does anyone know whether it can be done with the stock engine or only with a more powerful engine, cheers

Status: offline 		You can do it with the stock engine but you need to adjust the needles to bring on the power at the bottom end. If you brake while driving then apply full throttle the weight tranfer from front to back should get the wheels of the ground but not for long. The standard engine can just do it but do do them easily you need more torque and pickup, like the Picco.28 or OS.28 wheelie mills

A .21 rev's higher, longer run times, a lot that you can choose from.... you can prob run the 523 if it fits.

Status: offline 		thanks madmax22, i will try the rb523 in my ttr st-1 the best thing is if i dont like it on it or doesnt fits i always can put it on my revo. any ideas for a pipe, i hear the jp-1 or 3 are the best for a .21 or .23 but if i change the engine later for a picco .28 i dont know if it will fits.

I saw a novarossi .28 engine on amain hobbies is pretty expensive but i have a little cash in the bank but i dot know if its worth it, how does it sounds the novarossi .28 engine with a jammin jp-3 pipe in my ttr, and the best is that the novarossi came with a rotostart
