Which is preferred with liner or without liner? with AM MM 10xl 4s2P 4500's

Most everyone that was running without a liner is now running with a liner if they did do the swap of course.


I have always ran with one.

What? Wheres this come from? Who said everyones running a liner now?
Look at the top nitro and gas guys that win races, no liners. I know of some FE racers who havent run liner in over 10 years. It is a preferance thing. I personally think liner-less creates less drag. Some people say the liner helps keep water out. Its what you prefer.

i stated that from what i have read and seen.

I actually went from a liner to no liner in one of my nitros.
i know what its purpose is, and i know about the drag issues.
