You can't go wrong with this absolutely amazing and fine machinery,
to the exterior starting with the package, box, and what is inside finish of the engine,
tons of quality of this OS based engine interior, easy to tune, and holding the setting in really fine
carburetor, and the power is unlimited in the straight, yet bottom end punches
with easy any bump and jump of the track. 2060 pipe is what I suggest for buggy.
Fuel Economy is a blast! 6.5mm restrictor will work all around, if you
find the sweet spot on the trigger and cruise the track can easily break
the 9minute mark for a refill, a trained finger and light drive train of the buggy
will give you more run time, no doubt about it.
Price is a bang! high quality, japan made, hardened crankshaft, finest bearings,
even includes glow plug!
Do not hesitate, go with the Samurai for price, quality, run time, and power.
At the end of the day, this engine isn't groundbreaking. What this engine is, is a very high quality, very reliable, very easy to drive engine that doesn't break the bank.
I've had engines from all the big manufacturers, from the cheapest models to the most expensive. This engine has all the power of the most expensive and the right balance between features, durability, tuneability, and cost.
I highly recommend this engine to any racer from beginner to pro.
