Default Finally running in after engine "dummy spitting" incident

Last parts to fix the Jato arrived today so im just starting the "running in" in the garden

New engine sounds really nice and smooth, much better than the old one

I got my new truck, and it's back to basics

Hopefully no more tinkering time, and MORE race time

A few pointers, and no ruining the fun Dazza

1/10 scale
Aluminium main chasis
Carbon fibre struts/supports
Aluminium suspension
3 speed gear box
Rear exit tuned pipe
.21 engine
belt driven 4 wheel drive

and it's got to be started using a torque drill

can you guess what it is yet?
