the guy at my local rc shop says 100-110 is safest and after trying a couple of different fuel brands i found that my .15 will stay cool and still go like a bullet with one particular brand so try some different gas till you find one that works best with you're car.temp was tested with a digital laser thermometer.changes in air temp and air density will change the tune on your car so keep that screwdriver handy.

fucken retard,,,, if you wana run you engine at 300 to 315 make sure you have an engine for every tank of fuel. you will blow your up…the temp rang 220 to 250

hahaha are you …
hahaha are you fuckng kidding me!!! your a a dumb ass. if irs too lean it will run just as bad as it would too rich and damage your motor. there made to run 210- 250 not any hotter than that. if your looking for a good motor unlike like that peice of hes holding go with the OS Vspec.. it always runs good and at that temp.. dont listen to this faget

that is the no touchie screw it locks your carb from closing when breaking, if you titen it it will lock when accelerating. too loose means it will close your card when braking this will shut off the motor. hope this helps

Holy crap! He is over by a long shot at 325 degrees.

Then he should remake the video and give proper temps because no engine should run at 325 and most are 250 to 270!!
