maybe i slow tonight, help me out. the 361 i ran in the video and @ the GTG seemed very close in performance to the one 2K ran @ the GTG.

Now, I have not run either saw.

But, from my experience with 2 stroke motors, good ones take a long time to break in.

And, if you are comparing a similar size motor, I'd assume that the more broken in one would win.

I like flying model airplanes. And they are finicky about break in period.

You don't count hours until they are broken in, but characteristics. One will break in in 2 hrs run time, and another will break in in 6 hrs.

Same motor, by outside appearances.

Well, the other 361 made it in 11.7, and the NE346xp and an 044 in 13.0....

....tells me that there were a lot of variables in addition of the saws capability involved in that cutting session, some of which have already explained, some not......:greenchainsaw:



..but I am sure it was fun.....:clap: :clap:

Well, I'm not surprised at at the outcome at all. I have 2 Redmaxes now (4000 and 5000), and they are shockingly strong runners for their size. I get to try out a 346XP this weekend so we'll see how the 5000 stacks up. People questioning the quality of these saws are talking out of their :censored:, most have never even run one.
