How do you compare it to the k5.9? I'm sure it must be better, but I want to hear your input. My k5.9 has been nothing but awesome to me(other than break in and tuning). When ever my engine goes kaput, I want to know my options.
 
The LRP was an absolute breeze to break in and tune. It was the most trouble free engine I have ever worked with. The first tank it started right up on the 3rd pull and Idled smooth and steady no stalls at all during the 5 tank run in. In fact it didn't stall once all day long. Tuning it was just as easy I had no trouble at all finding the sweet spot and man does this engine make some serious power! It will blow the 5.9 into the weeds without breaking a sweat. Wheelies are pretty much effortless just give a quick squeeze on the trigger and the front wheels launch to the sky violently. The power curve is so broad that there is torque all over the rev range. I love this engine.
 
Yes the newly released one. I got it from Tower Hobbies 199.99 shipped. I bought an LRP ZR.30 about 2 weeks before this one came out and was just gonna use it but when I saw that Tower had them in stock I jumped on it. The .30 is a badass engine itself and only has about 10 tanks of fuel through it so I will keep it as a back up engine. I'm having an absolute blast with the .32 right now.
