Photographs of 1/8 On-Road cars with the 1/8 scale straight base filter will be up within a few days. Please check back for details later.
This filter has been winning races all over the world for five years. Racers like it for its very fine dirt stopping power. After a full weekend running, this filter passes the Q-tip test (run a Q-tip around the inside of the carb) with not a speck of dirt entering the engine.
Motor Saver had phone conversation with Steve Canadian, highly respected on-road 1/8 scale two wheel and four wheel drive racer:
"I have been using foam filters on my engines for a long time. I had always gotten some scoring of the piston and sleeve and thought it was normal. I started using Motor Saver Air Filters on some of my engines about two years ago. After inspecting the engines I found the scoring of the piston and sleeve had gone away. This is obviously good for engine life and can relate to other things...to improve racing".
