Default New Engine for my RC8 FT

Well I have been at the track racing other 8th scale buggys and I currently have a OS V Spec engine, and I have been racing since I was young, my first buggy was the Inferno MP-5 and on the straights the others pull away from me, my question is how would a OS Speed VZ-B Spec AL be compared to the engine i have? Or should I go with the Novarossi engines?

I think you should go with the nova's they have just brought out a sweet looking 4 port. They have a great reputation and are all round good engines. but i run a grp .21 in my car these are the sickest engines ever.

If you have a properly tuned (and not worn out engine) V-spec, no one should pull away from you... that is one of the fastest engines out there. what fuel are u running (nitro and oil)? what engines are u racing against?
