The Losi Nitrotec Engine is made by Nova Rossi for losi the rest of the losi and dynamite engines are made by SH

many different things appeal to people differently.... best bet is to always have a neutral point of view and always respect other choices people have made... Every track I go to I always let guys test drive my rigs...most guys absolutely love the feel and sound of my engines, but some others find them too much, I worry about taking care of those who like my products, and respect those who do not ! its all good to me ! I know what I like, and nobody is going to convince me any differently.... After running mod engines for years, I find zero satisfaction running most of the stock engines, they just seem far too conservative for my taste..But as I say, to each their own ! .....

For sure ! I wouldn't want to tell someone anything different...

However with that being said it has to be said that most people at the tracks are there for reasons other then trying to win the A-Main...Many guys are just average Joe gear heads like me, and like to have exotic and unique engines whether they are necessary or not...Just like the guys putting mod chips in their diesel pickup trucks, its not needed, but its still a popular product...I will never claim that one of my engines will make you a faster racer or anything like that, but I can promise that my modified engines are truly modified engines that will deliver performance you will not find from an off the shelf engine..Some guys are into engines, some are into decals, some are into winning the A-Main.. many different things draw us to the hobby ....For those of you who are engine guys like me then you will understand where I am coming from ! your either born a gearhead, or your not..

Also I will say that my engines are modified to make power, they do usually get great mileage and are great track engines, but make no mistake about it, they are modified to make power and RPM....There are already piles of top quality race mills on the market perfectly capable of doing the intended job , but I am one of the only guys offering engines truly modified for power first..there is absolutely zero snake oil here !.

The motor you chouse is really dictated on you budget, what you can get on a regular basis (ie. parts support) an what motor people are running so you can get advice from them, and realy after that it's up to you, if your short list is made up of realy good established companies than you realy can't go wrong with any of them.
