I'll bet you guys regularly set top speed for wheels turning in the pits. Now you need to either put this thing away for good, or make a freakin run! Anybody can build something that sits on blocks when it's at its' finest. Come on!!!!

@rd2fst My point was that you dont time an engine at the headers but by way of timing marks on the balancers

As for theas engines not having balancers i have seen them with and without if without then the blower pully has the marks on it

The two that we sponserd had balancers on them

@rcabbrider If it had been going down the track under a load it would have been a fireball, shows how many blown nitro engines you have worked on.

[MerlinxPV]

@AnthJP Kill switch?? Shows what you know about nitro...........NOTHING, you shut off a nitro engine by turning off the fuel supply.
