Im looking for an engine to race with in my sportwerks buggy and i saw the axial spec 1s engine what do you guys think of its performance and competition racing

VERY low on the list...

I would get the Mach 2 26 or Mach 427 over it any day..

The Axial is a torquey, thirsty 28, which makes zero sense in a buggy... Ideally you want a 21 with closed backplate. I say get the Mach though cuz it's about the user-friendliest engine out there. Plus it has excellent power and they even last a long time.. IMVHO it's the best value-for-money nitro engine there is.

If you do get the Mach, I would recommend the closed backplate from Dynamite and a starterbox.

If you go for a 21 and are on a budget, I would look at the Losi 350, maybe the Dynamite 21.. Check out the engines at www.amainhobbies.com and www.losipartshouse.com ..

The Mach 2 26, when in your cart at amain, is only $125. That is just a stupidly good price..

ok so what your saying is that this mach 2 will keep up with the higher class engines?? I was looking at the Novarossi N21BF Limited edition. But I also saw the Mach 2 .21. Which would you chose

Mach 2 26.
