Need for Speed!
I have a Kyosho Pureten GP3. It's currently totally standard. It is run on Models Technics Formula Irvine Contest 10 as this is what the model shop recommended. Should I run the engine with a higher nitro content? Any other ways of getting more horsepower and speed? Please reply with links to any products, if possible.

RE: Need for Speed!
using a higher % nitro fuel and a tuned pipe will get you more umph, I put a .15 engine on mine instead of the stock .12 and that had a big difference. But I found that when I upgraded the engine I now need to upgrade the tyres and suspension to cope with the extra power. So it depends on how deep your pockets are. There are some useful How To articles at [link]http://www.rcnitro.com[/link] that go through how to tune your car for best performance.
