simply put,
this the best damn motor period.
i race hard three to four time a week, if the job permits.
so you can say that i put a lot of abuse on my engines but the good thing is, they can more than take it.
im talking anywhere from 7-9 gallons o fuel before its flat worn out
trust me i have had a p5 every year for the past 4 years.
raced every variation of the motor ,i don't care what type it is
so long as its got P5 in the front... you can't go wrong.
forget about what the pros [More…] |

I've been running P5's for a long time. The reason is simple. It tunes well, has plenty of torque to get over tough sections of the track, and it's proven to be one of the most reliable engines on the market. Going into the main race at the end of the night you know it's going to survive, keep a consistent tune, and lay down the power like no other engine ever made. Don't lean out the top too much, it likes to be close to flush, make sure the bottom end is not fat, and the idle is low enough and[More…] |

This engine is unbelievable! Awesome power and great reliability. I have 6 races on this engine and it hasn't skipped a beat! No flame-outs, GREAT on fuel, and it still is close to flush on the top end. It likes to run fairly cool compared to most engines and I get over 10 min. on a single tank!! I use the 6.5 insert (which is already in it when it ships), it also comes with 4 other inserts. I use a JP4 pipe and it works great. This NOVAROSSI will run with all those big money engines, so try one[More…] |

Just to further the review of my purchase and an update! I have got 9gallons through my P5 and it just started the flame out process of being in the need of a pinch but will probably just use it for spare parts and on my way to check out with a new one! By far the best engine that I have run! |

For saving money, check out the Dynamite 007 version. It will sork just as good but wont have that same exact rap sound. -//- I broke in this motor yesterday and took it for a run in my Buggy and WOW, I can't believe the power it has. The old P5 was always a good "workhorse", and I will see if this on[More…] |

I'm using this engine in my truggy, and let me tell you this thing has great power! Tons of bottom end! I'm still working on getting the speed from the top end but not to worried about it. It's fast enough. I'm running the 086 dynamite pipe. I have about 4 gallons on mine so far and it runs great. So crisp. Great buy at an affordable price. |

This is the best motor racing in both buggy and truggy classes. I have to replace the engine in case of breakage
, So if I break buggy or truggy tune the pipe of old engines do very well. Think about it for this price is hard to beat as a motor. |

Dont let the lower price of tbis engine fool you, it carries a pinch and compression like a champ, great reliability and low end power. Easy to tune, break in takes a bit to get the piston and sleeve matched, but be patient and this mill will reward you with every penny well spent!! |

I just picked up my second P5 for amain, super easy to break inn.. Run it rich for about the first 3/4 to a Full Gallon, then you can lean it out. You will not be sorry, if you take your time with this motor. After about the two or third gallon its balls with drop, and it becomes a monster
I RECOMMEND THIS PIPE HEADER COMBO. Getting a consistent pit stop at 10 mins a tank..

This was my first real "Racing engine".... I had always messed around with RTR engines, so I always thought tuning and keeping engines runing would be a pain. THis engine changed my perception of the nitro part of the hobby. Break in was smooth, though the needles required some changes from the factory to get it running. After that, it idled and idled tank after tank with absolubtely no problems. I heat cycled it about 5-6 tanks before even putting it on the ground. I gave it a few more tanks[More…] |

This engine is spectacular! Get it tuned right and you will win races back and forth. So much torque, excellent fuel economy, and lays down that power and torque smoooothly. It WON'T flame out when tuned right. It's absolutely spectacular, if your debating buy one, DO IT!! You will not regret it! Look at all the other eviews as well! |
