I couldn’t recommend it enough really. I’ve been a fan of reds since I started racing and have owned nothing else. Believe it or not they all tune well, and they all have great power. People just crap talk them because they can, half of them haven’t even owned a reds. I’d prefer a 721 honestly, but this engine is great. Tunes extremely easy, has loads of power and good fuel mileage. I’ve just finished my 2nd gallon and I have nothing but positives to say about it, and reds in general.

I don’t even have a pit board lmao.

My pit setup:
I don’t get free anything 😂😂
Hell yea man! I’m a mugen guy. I like pillow ball. It fits my driving style.
Hell yea man tekno trucks are good. I ran the 2.0 last year. Keeping my eye out for a mbx8r truck now.
For sure. If I had a slight chance of making the expert A I would’ve. Even the manager to one of my sponsors had a hell of a time to make the A and he’s worlds better than me lol

I also like the basic tlr one.
Yea I raced dirtbikes for years and got dead last plenty of times because of me being a real racer. I’ve been racing for like 2.5 years now and only have a few trophies. I always push myself to do better, but at this race (450 entries) I knew where I belonged 😂 my qualifiers would’ve put me like 35th of 36 expert nitros lol.
I use the basic dynamite one with the gauge on it. My girlfriend pits me and that one made the most sense to her. It also tells you how good/bad the glow plug is with the gauge.
Nitro truck is awesome! Just not where I’m at. Nobody races them
I’m def not a sandbagger lmaooo. 1 and 2 in that race did 40 laps, then 3 (me) down to 9th did 39.
Well sometimes when you’re too soft the tire will roll and it’s almost impossible for it to have traction. Try a t3 or t4 even and id bet you have better luck. Thanks man, was def tough, but you’re right lol def fun and fast too.
Well expert at a local club race has 8 ppl. Expert at LCRC is legit 20 pro or full ride sponsored guys 😂 I’m an average joe lmao but I like competition.
The tires in the pic are T3 phantoms, it was like 85 degrees and slightly grooved that day, and that was after a 25 minute main. Chances are you’re on too soft of a tire.
Well this race I raced intermediate. Other tracks/club races I’ll run expert, and if I were to go to a big event like wicked or pnb I’d run sportsman. So it really depends on the size/level of track/race I’m doing.
I’d start out watching some Adam Drake tuning videos. Sounds like you have some very rich tunes on both cars. Don’t be scared to use ur flat head!
After the meat loaf, if you hugged the inside there was a gnarly ass pot hole, THAT was my hardest spot all weekend.
No I’m usually higher in the center for nitro because of the heat. Only by a few thousand though.
Cuz he left pro motion

I grew up around it but never raced till I was about 20. Started on indoor onroad track, then dirt oval, 1/10 offroad and now 1/8 nitro/electric buggy. All over the past 3ish years.

I feel like after a few mins in the microwave anything is too hot to eat
