Gray, I definitely could see a huge difference in your Aries between the OS 1.40 and the Mintor 1.70. When you hit the throttle hard after lifting off I could literally see the plane jump forward. Quite impressive!

  My 1.70 hit 8200 rpm with 10% magnum, APC 17X12 regular, at the Lubbock contest. It was hot and high, reports were that it was like being at 7200 ft.

  HO-LY-COW !  That's a pretty beefy setup, for sure.  10% Nitro?  You're kiddin', right??

  Just a few notes on my initial test and break-in on this engine.  It has not been installed in my plane as of this writing but I cant wait.
