Default 1/16 th nitro

Hello all,
I just wanted to know if any one here has a 1/ 16 th scale nitro car/ truck ? If so, what temp should those things be running at ? It has a .05 engine. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

220 !!! WOW !!! The I bought the Himoto Mini Cobra and was told that it should run at about 110 max temp. it has the trinity .05 engine in it. It just didn't sound right to me. I have been averaging about 200 or so. Thanks for the reply Dokioto. Now I'm not so worried about it running too hot. Thanks

I'm sure the 110 is in degrees Celsius, while 220 is in Fahrenheit. 100 degrees Celsius = 212 degrees Fahrenheit, so 110 C would be about 225 or so.

O.k. you got me there. I didn't even think of converting the temp to Celsius. It was right in front of me plain as day. Thanks again. Much appreciated.
