Had the pleasure of installing one, breaking in and tuning on my bud's
T-Maxx.  I must say, it was the easiest break-in and tune EVER, and the
goddamn thing SCREAMS!  It launches off the line like it's been shot out of
a cannon and doesn't stop till it runs out of gear.  He's gunna have to drop
a few teeth on the spur as he's running out of gear way before he runs out
of engine.  Beating the piss out of it, temps never exceeded *250.  Idles
all day w/o loading up and holds a tune very well.

I must say.....kudos to O.S. on that particular mill!

we have an RZ in one of our NTC3's and it too is WAY powerful. We've
chewed up a few diffs already....

Yeah, try running the .18 TZ ;) I didn't even get one run out of it
without blowing out the gearbox on my RC10GT.

At a smooth progression to 3/4 throttle with a LONG field, I was able
to punch it that last 1/4 and pull a wheelie with the largest pinion
gear associated offers for the GT. It's just..too much. I took it off
the truck while I try to figure out how to handle the power.

As an interesting aside..I turned down the ATV to 20 % and I was still
able to blow a .15 engine equipped RC10GT out of the water.
