whats wrong with this pic?? :D
this pic was taken while i was trying to blow up an old crap motor.
this is from my venom temp gauge
we didnt end up blowing it up (but i reckon we came close)
we are saving the engine till i remember to bring my video camera with me to film the engines death.
i think i may hold the record for the hottest running engine now lol
any contenders???

Are you using nitrous or summin. I don't know af any fuel that burns so well, the engine will still run with that little compression.

how did you get it up that high?
we didnt ease off full throttle for like 3 mins or so.
at one stage while it was doing donuts i turned my transmitter off just to let it go on its own just for the fun of it.
the bad thing about this (if you can call it that) is that the engine didnt blow up like we all expected!!!! we let it cool down for a while then went to start it up again and it fired up within a few pulls.
we decided after that not to thrash it anymore and to save it till i remember to bring my video camera with me to record the engines final moments on this earth lol

Hey, lets go cook some burgers! I'v seen an engien run at 500*F! The guy ported the crap out of it and then ran it down a big hill. The bearings froze up and then he broke the crank pin off. It was fun while it lasted though. BTW the engine was completely shot. You could take the piston and just about let gravity pull the piston down through the top of the sleeve.
