The first video shows a plaque which says 103 cc.

And I'm pretty sure that's a supercharger on top of the second engine. The first engine doesn't seem to have one, though.

Heh, see this video on that site of the 350bhp micra? That guy/car stays just out of town from me. He's topped that car out at >180mph. Funny coincidence i'd see that on there, we just saw him last night.

and i found the website: http://www.conleyprecision.com/

they only make 3.5 hp images/smilies/sad.gif

i was expecting 1/4 in size = 1/4 in power (or at least 30+bhp, then you could put them in a cart or sth)

still think they're pretty cool, they make oilpressure and everything

he even has a viper engine

Heh, I think it's great! Despite other critics. images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

That's perfect for R/C car application, smoke the competition images/smilies/lol.gif But the prices for the 1/4 scale cars are a bit over the top...can buy a whole car for those prices.
