I need people to pass on any information about this engine on this thread. Will be getting this engine in 2-3 days time. So I would like comment only on this engine and no other.
Thanks will be appreciated.

what would you like to know about it !! ive got it runing on a mp 777 and it really good man !!! the acceleration is really unbelievable !! as for top speed its good for me as it is single speed but if you are getting this engine then you are supposed to know that it is a racing engine !!! the torque isnt too high !!! if you want torque really look for vg.30 !!!!

Joy are there any races soon over in dubai, have a group of drivers here willing to come over for a race, advise if any. Also the new os engine will be really something, I believe there was a review on the engine in extreme rc cars magazines site, you can search for review articles on google of the engine, am running mega21 by serpent, thats very good so far.

I have got my new v-spec yesterday. The settings are rich now and what I can say is that its very fast. Just completed 3 n a half tanks and its insane. Once I complete few more tanks will tune it a little bit and it rocking. I got a JR Digital radio + reciever for 70$ and thats a bonus.
About races in dubai, I am not sure. We have on-road races. But for off-road we dont have a proper track and its not worth racing on. Probably in few months they would get the track right.

Oh yeah! This pipe is made for this specifically in my opinion. We dont have it here as its out of stock. So I am using the 2040 instead. Not bad my pipe still screams though. This new v-spec speed is one crazy engine.

Stiil too steep for me. I'm using the Hyper .28 race engine now and still contented with it. I saw my friends Hyper 8 with the V-Spec with OS 2050 or 2060 pipe (not sure which of the two) and this engine screams. Smooth powerband. [sm=tongue_smile.gif]

I was going to buy the hyper 8 pro kit but I landed up buying the X1-CR pro and I really like it. Till now did not break anything. And with a new v-spec it rocks.

It's going to be a shame once you get that beautiful head all scratched up. I've always wished someone would come up with a head that is scratch resistant. A guy at Nocer told me they were working on it but that was two years ago and I still haven't seen anything.

shesha,
Thanks for reminding I need to zip tie the fuel line to my engine before I take it off-road and get it damaged.

Nope no pipe yet. There will be a friendly race on thursday here, if I manage to break in the engine in time this week, when the pipe gets here I might test it out.
