[cheesecake]

im bored at work

[motoxer4life]

i got a random question and to make a long story short, a guy at the track said he had 50 gallons on an rc engine lol. I told him i didint think they even got past 15 but he said for sure. Idk, his engines looked old but not 50 f'in gallons. so is it possible? I dont think so.

[Ponch]

If you keep rebuilding it...

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

or u just do slow circles in the parking lot; the dudes prolly full of shit

[J-Dub]

You figure a gallon of fuel is like 6 hours of run time.

so 50 Gallons is 300 Hours. Unless he rebuilds them I doubt a Nitro engine would EVER last that long.

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

theres just no way. You would wear the chrome off the sleeve

[motoxer4life]

Ya, he kept saying that he needed a new sleeve, and he didint say anything about doing it before.

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

ya my motors have 22 gallons on them, I get about 17minutes per tank of gas as well

[hansarvin]

50 gallons on the same engine with the same components (p/s, crank, bearings)... no. On the same crankcase with all new internals every 10 gallons or so I guess it could be done, but I'm no expert...

[mikeh]

Yeah, and my Grandpa used to saw he had George Washingtons hatchet! The handle was replaces 4 times and the axe head twice!

[motoxer4life]

50 gallons on the same engine with the same components (p/s, crank, bearings)... no. On the same crankcase with all new internals every 10 gallons or so I guess it could be done, but I'm no expert...

but it would be cheaper and better to just get the new engine.

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

better? maybe not, cheaper to buy new? god yes

[motoxer4life]

ya, plus they were traxxas motors

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

oh shit well then they DEFINETLY dont have that much fuel on them, maybe 5 gallons but thats pushing it

[J-Dub]

Lol its true, my average TRX engine lasted like 6

[rocco79]

Reasons why the guy who told you that is full of shit..
- The rpms these mills turn is so high (and unbalanced) there is no way they can last tha long

- The materials they are made of arent 100,000 mile materials
- The fuel they burn... See how long anything last running on NITRO-methane!
- Their design. They just arent designed to last that long, i mean C'mon! They are a ringless designed motor.

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

man you are sooo smart professor zoccoli......lmao

[rocco79]

Yeah and i didnt even need to pay 40k a year to fail out of college to get to this point.

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]
