Default ** (( TOP SECRET )) **

Well! sorry for the small amount of info. ladies and gentlemen, but I''ve been sworen to secrecy.

All I can say is an unnamed company has designed a new 2-stroke engine that will improve the 1:5th scale market yet again! There is a sample out, I just can''t show you guys yet. I will take pictures as soon as I am allowed to.

You know what this means! there will be new redesigned pipes and other motor mods.

More speed more power!

I would say the word is out now, I guess the finer details are still a secret.

Look at the airplane market for twin cylinders... even a wankel. I have no idea of what it may be and no use speculating about what may be. [sm=71_71.gif] Any idea of when the news will be public?

Well I wouldn''t make a statement like that! It''s not that the U.S. can''t produce a good motor, It''s more about the cost.
But, then again I never said who was making it.

That''s the best statement I''ve heard this year....

If you, Angelshark, have sworn secrecy, you just should keep your mouth shut untill you have anything meaningfull to tell, not just some silly gossip...
(that''s my honest opnion)

Nevertheless, the best 1/5-1/6 engines are still produced somewhere around here on the other side of the big splash....

I seriously doubt it. I think I have an idea what it is, courtesy of another member with whom we were sharing our thoughts, but I''ll do the honourable thing and keep schtum for now. The big clue though is redesigned pipes.
