My team driver has been running the clocked B 5 for about 6 months now.

I got the opportunity to run this motor last week and put it on my mbx6 buggy

I put the new steel variable weight flywheel with all the weights and OMG, this motor is just ballistic.

Neal told me it was a little too much for a buggy and guess what , He is absolutely right.

My trigger finger is a little heavy I will admit, but the really great thing is that since I don't have to

pull it, I get fantastic fuel milage.  Kudos to the clockworks team.

what is your budget?

In the $300 engine range, the Clocked P5 is pretty potent...
