Not going to go round and round with Highplanes, too much respect for him and may be right. The 60LX with black pipe will hold its own pretty good in the rpm department, but can not turn with the all out Jett or Nelson race engines. It will pull more pitch prop by a considerable amount IMHO, making top speed in equal birds very very close. My advantage is stick a 8.75 X 8.5-9 apc on her, start, needle, idle down to 2,000 or less and taxi out with great idle reliabllity. I like to be able to land under power considering my loss of skills coming about. Awww, lets be honest with the gang. Just love to take off, back off to 1/2 or less throttle and cruse around waiting for the sucker of the day to come up and play. They still believe that "it just clean out a little"? Greybierd, if out there, keep quiet or else.
