Default How does this piston look?

Anyone who knows how a piston should look after about a gallon and a half let me know how this one looks to you. Thanks in advance for your feedback.

'Sup Dan, it's Alex from the BMX track on Sunday. [8D]

Worried about your piston after the air filter incident, huh? I think as long as there aren't any scratches/gouges/score marks on the piston or inside the sleeve, it should be fine. And I think you'll know pretty quickly when you try to run it if it's damaged. That pic is a bit blurry so it's hard to see fine details like marks on the piston.

HobbyTown had no spares for me, so I've got an order from TowerHobbies on the way, should be here tomorrow. I also got a 6-pack of those grub screws for the exhaust, you're welcome to one if you'd like. I'll be driving at the track this weekend, hope to see you there.

Whats up man? Good to hear you will be up and running. I posted earlier today with a link to my blog where I wrote a big piece about last weekend including our outing. You should check it out. www.danthehitman.net I would love to get one of those screws from you for the pipe. I also modified a motorsaver filter to fit on the original filter tube so I should be ready by Saturday as well. I will probably give you a call this week, I learned of a track in loveland with an offroad and oval course. I am going to go check it out at lunch and I will let you know how it goes. Peace!

Yup, just got done reading your writeup, and sweet vids! That's awesome Lynn got the one of me jumping over your truck. I'd be down to checkout the track in Loveland this weekend if they're open, though I probably need to improve my driving skills a bit, hehe. Lemme know how that place looks and when you think you'll be out with the truck this weekend...

In those first two pics I do have them on backwards. I didn't notice it that day but they are on correctly now. I usually check but I must have spaced it or had it backwards in my head since they are all on backwards. Thanks for pointing that out, I usually get them right.
