RB guys out there, what kinda runs times you get and what motor you have?

i have a S3 with a dynamite pipe and i get 11 mins, i think i could make 12. and thats with no carb restrictor, running about 230-240

I run a C6/JP-3 in my RC8.
Byron's 20%, OS P3 plug and a 7mm restrictor, motor still shimmed for 30% fuel.

I get an easy 10 minutes a tank, with a heavy trigger finger and a fat tune up. (185*-195* temps)
I was die hard OS till I got this C6 on a trade deal.

Me likey.............


Did I mention that it runs like a raped ape???????[X(][X(][8D]



Scott

how can you tell what its shimmed for? lol raped ape....high five.

right under 10 w/s5w/086 running fat(not totally broke in)..before i run again im gonna put a turbo head on..im sure ill get 11 after 5or6or so more tanks..big difference after running a v2 21 lol it got right at 8min

my picco only ran about 7, the os vg i used ran about 8, now my rb runs over 11. i want to try the 6mm restrictor and see how long it will run, i just dont want to retune it cause im lazy lol

The C6 out of the box, is shimmed for up to 25% according to RB.

When I got this motor it had an additional shim installed and the guy was running on 30% fuel.


Next time out, it will be sporting a 5.5mm restrictor, OD 97T plug, a 17T bell as well as .8 clutch springs.
I'm happy with the runtime, just trying to calm it down a bit more for the indoor track I run on.


Once I get it where I want it, it's going on my Son's car and I will go back to running my OS Speed motors.


Scott

Modded C6, about 11-12 min on a tank depending on the track layout, at about the 8 gallon mark and still going strong.

how do you get 25% at my hobby shop theres 20% and then theres 30% nothing inbetween

the manual should say what it is shimmed for and how much clearance you need.

some hobby shops carry 25%.

how would i shim it to use 20%

Shim what?

Most motors are fine with 20% straight out of the box, no additional shims needed.


Scott

wow and i just went out last week and bought a hole gallon of 30% #@$%$#^&$#$

what motor are you going to be running?


Scott

well i was running an os vg but im getting rid of that. i'll be running an rb c6 it seems nice and its cheap enough for me to buy.

rb c6 costs $500......[&o]

my bad i mean the S5 wow i cant seem to get anything right this week![]
the s5 is $234

that sounds more like it

Runtime is something that is affected by so many factors..... track layout,ambient temp. vehicle selection and driving style as well as needle position...... However I have several guys running my modified Picco .21's and they are always the fastest .21's on the track, and always have the most fuel left out of a qualifier..... on our tracks we usually get around 9 minutes in a Truggy and 8 minutes in a buggy.....
