[Greg Mortlock]

Hi all thanks guys for earlier replys regarding the spares i was looking for,seems i can get them from a few of you guys so ill do that over the next few days.What i did want to ask is what sort of sppeds could i expect from my tunnel.It hasnt been run yet , boats in the paint shop but will post some pics when it comes back.

will be running a std 7.5cc k&b on a Jerry Dunlap Hot Shot.

This i have built more for hobby and not to race.

Let's see here...going to the WAAAY back machine.

1 JD Hot Shot

2 K&B 7.5

Calculating...

3 70 - 80 Km/H



Multiply those by .62 for the metric to english conversion and you get 43 - 50 mph

50+ mph range is about right. The red head 7.5's are more powerful than the water cooled version we ran back in the day.
