Default VTEC in R/C cars (pics!)

Well just recently I decided to pull my old RC10GT out of the closet and try to get it running when I decided I should look for a new motor for it. Well after browsing a bit I found this on www.rc10.com



That is linked directly from their site, no photoshop voodoo.

As far as I know it's not equipped with any kind of variable valve timing (come on, it's a 2 stroke), but I think it's funny / cool as ---- that it's on there.

They make superchargers for these things, but I think the general consensus on those is that they're more of a novelty item than anything.

I always wanted to build a crazy rc car, but I don't know the first part of thier secret language. The motor names (numbers) don't seem to really identify them at all.

haha that ---- is SICK! :P

Hey if you wanna buy a new r/c engine, how about buying my brand new RB .12, i think it's a big block too. If you know r/c, you know that the RB motors are sick ish.
