Why dual batteries on the back of the Briggsbuilt?

Yeah, the poses he did in those pics were perfect! I really like the one where he is holding the hotdog! LOL We took my toy hauler to a RC Car race, I remember that day well, it was a great time.

The briggs has 2 batteries to run 24 volts to the starter only. Since the PWC carb doesnt have a choke, and the modded Engine has so much compression, the 24v helps the starter spin faster and starts are easier. It was thought up by Doug Goodnuff, the previous owner of the car.

My Pilot uses the Super BN carb as well I removed my choke plate and assembly, filled all the holes then removed some of the flow obstructions at the inlet of the carb I just added a primer off a snowmobile for cold starting give it a pump or two and the Engine is running with about 1/2 pull of the recoil it makes it start so easy I never pursued a electric starter.

Its also good for using to flood out your Engine when your all done for storage between races and rides.. Just give it a few pumps at idle when it dies remove the plug dry reinstall ready for the next event.

Does the fuel always flow through that device? Or is that tapped in like an auxiliary thing?

No it only flows gas when you pump it, you just TEE it into your gas line any place that's close and easy, I drilled a hole in the adapter I fabricated to clamp my air box too so it squirts the fuel in above the throttle plate.

Very cool!
Third vid is sweet.Looked like you were carrying more speed up the jumps and hitting the backside perfect.
Man I wish I was out there with you guys!

What was that Green thing parked on the track? :-)

Yeah, that was my goal, to carry speed and downside each landing. Something I learned while racing RC Cars, try not to over shoot the landing, the longer your tires arent touching dirt, the slower you will go, time the jumps, hook your tires up, and accelerate.

That green thing looked kinda like a Jamaican Boblsed! LOL
