Default Holy Cow

Got her running today. TMaxx with hyper .21, man this thing kicks butt. once i get her fine tuned and finished (cosmetics) i'll try to get a video up.

ohh and the ofna roto start works great but for this motor the shaft runs real close to the tank, so i might end up rubbing a hole into it

talk about power. its nice and i am running the Lst tires and rims. just did a small jump and when it landed, you could see it suck to the ground and keep on pulling. plus sounds awsome when that internal turbo spools up

"Turbo" model, which means there's an impeller ("turbofan") between the crankshaft and the back plate. It supposedly mixes the fuel and air more evenly and dense.
