What a bunch of sheer over-the-top bollocks.. I never directly asked you to modify anything, and you never "turned me down". I might have considered at one point, and perhaps did broach the subject since I had ordered this Blast V9 from amain in the States, and was considering options after finding out it wasn't really what I expected.. (still got a killer deal on it, and it will make a great buggy engine..) when you were being untypically civil for a moment, and I was maybe extra bored (winter..) and just brainstorming options..
The stuff you have written on this page in the last few posts is the most preposterous, disingenuous, and frankly delluded hot-air I have seen written in an RC forum in a long time. You seem to really think you've reinvented the wheel...
I have been encountering more and more people who have had your engines and moved on, and the reason is that your whole thing is more talk than substance. Your fanboys are loyal cuz they think it's cool to be part of your arrogant trash-talking attitude junior high clique thing. They all buy into your talk, and the ones who do well would do well with stock engines. You are responsible for such an awful turn in this hobby - all trash-talking about how my toy-car engine can beat up your toy car engine. It's revolting. You even see it on amain product reviews now.. You've poisoned other modders into adopting similar tones, because they have to because unfortunately your trash-talking MOD is so contagious - like a filthy disease.. Again though, I'm seeing more and more people move on from your engines(people from various continents..) Which is understandable - even IF they were that great, the whole "I am the god of nitro RC" aura eminating from you is so offputting it's bound to push all but the most blindly sycophantic axxkissers away...
John, buy yourself a modded Bonito, then whichever pipe and header and plugs and clutch he tells you to buy, then change fuels to whatever it has to be. Call him everytime the weather changes by 10F and you can't tune it.. Then once you've spent your $600 on all that, and it doesn't work out perfectly, well..., I hope you don't bow out of the hobby all the sooner because you blew your load too soon on a bunch of unnecessary attitude and presumed better performance from some modded nonsense when a stock engine for half the price and none of the annoying stigma that goes with him would have served you just as well, if not better...
You're a freakin' liar about Alpha too. You know they are good powerful engines for the money but never talk about them because you don't want to talk about the competition which you aren't selling. An Alpha .23 will almost certainly be my next engine, and I won't feel at all insecure about it.. In fact it's one of the main things I'm looking forward to in RC this year.. - breaking in a killer new truggy engine.. No, it doesn't need to be "modded".. Stupid ridiculous internet forum sub-culture that modding is...
The guy in the video of the P5 above had an Alpha A852 too that was shredding it up.. I think he had a video of it right after the P5 and it looked right up there with it... Where'd that video go?.................
