hi mate you can run your big bore kit with any of your hpi bits no problem but i would advise to not go any higher than 26cc as for two wheel drive this is the biggest engine you can run at a brca club meet you will be fine at ea for a bit but i would save your money

so i wouldn't be able to use my car at the track if i had a 29cc engine?
What would be a suitable upgrade to the engine or the car in whole?

Hi Josh, before making any decisions come to the track Sunday and have a chat with us all...as Ainsbury says, 26cc is plenty on a rear 2 wheel drive, anyway, a tuned 26 can be quite powerful. You would be able to use the 29cc at our track but not in an official BRCA club meet. See you Sunday

Yeah a 23 or 26 is fine, I think some of those cheaper big bore heads are pretty bad quality as well and in general the lower the cc the high the rpm (although less torque) so higher top speed.

Oh come on that's a bit cruel, there's the yellow wing as well and the screws aren't too rusty and the cheese is good quality mature cheddar. Oh and how could you forget the front shock tower raiser..... ;D

Well you have to file it down a bit yourself, what sort of margarine tube would you like for your 3 TK05's? I'll come with you if that's ok to watch, it'll be nice to not have to do anything and just watch.....
See you in a few weeks
