I just figured i would write a quick review on the picco .26 red dot. I just finished the break in process on my red dot and even before i was done breaking it in i could tell that it just wanted to cut loose and start slingin parts around. Well i was right, i didn't break any thing (yet) but it has GOBS upon GOBS of power, it would power my 3.3 revo into a wheelie at just about any speed, even in second gear which i thought was pretty bad ass. So if anyone out there is looking for a sick engine for their revo, the JL Red Dot Picco .26 is the way to go.

Whats the "L. . . . .racer?" for
I am gonna get some running vids soon, when the weather breaks again. And as far as having it "RIGHT" i have been running nitro R/C's for a while now so i am pretty sure i know what a "right" tune sounds like

I'm runnin 17/36
 
That's my gear ratio too, and I know you've got it right, I was saying that most OTHER people do not......Lumina racer.

That sounds like fun. I have a 98 monte with a 3.8 I'd like to race in v6 class someday. For now it's a good winter car gotta wait. I'd never call you out on your tuning, I've only started to really understand it myself.......thanx to rcnt....and I've been running nitro since '00 when I got my first maxx. I do wanna see how much faster that red dot is than my s27 though, I know it is.
 
Like i said, once the weather breaks again and i get the nitro out, i am gonna get some running vids with it, but right now there is snow on the ground so No nitro for me
