    If you want to spend 2K on an engine then great. I wouldn't be able to use it at my two nearest tracks due to displacement and/or noise restrictions.
    Now if they did a 30cc then I'd be interested and they could sell a boat load of them.


    Yeah I know that pal

    What you think of the advances in engine

    Because I’m racing BRCA I have to be 30cc or less. I started by buying the KM ported rebuild kit from rcModelZ with the intention of using my old 29.5 Scott Finlay. However, I stripped the threads in the flywheel cover and the carb is not great. So I brought an ESP lightened piston and stock 29 Zenoah for the parts! With the stock crank I have a 28.5cc and ditched the head gasket to keep the compression up

    I’m pleased with how it turned out . It does respond quick and at some point, I will port the Zenoah head. I do want to get an Oddie clutch so I don’t have to worry about broken springs and wear

    I like the look of that piston
    I had a lightened molly coated from MMR
    I put that in the mk1 x2 ported engine

    I haven’t done any updates for a while as there hasn’t been much interest in this thread. That said, I can confirm the 30DNT from rcModelZ is a very capable truck. At Zenoah Challenge Cup I qualified straight into the final and finished 9th overall. Would have done better but I replaced the clutch spring and left the bolts loose in the clutch housing, one backed out and locked against the rear disc [emoji53] I’ve also had a few runs at my local track. I’ve been playing with the camber gain and shock positions in my quest for grip in the wet

    You will find that on here mate
    No idea why
    Great work on the tray
    Did you make your own for strength/durability purposes?
