I have decided to race at york this sunday, and upon closer inspection of my car, it aint got a speedo,

i am after a quick buy at a decent price, so it can be in my buggy for sunday

i'm not looking for a motor with it, and i would prefer it to be in good condition,

let me know what you have, cheers

lrp/nosram/novak are all very good quality manufacturers and i know some people have had bad luck with certain brands and others don't but you gotta get over it oneday :thumbsup: is it the brushed or brushless lrp stuff you've had badluck with? As i know the lrp brushed motors wern't great

You will do very very very well to get a gtb in a cr.

one more thing that the gtb's are huge and you will have to file down the heatsink and take the fan off :thumbdown: get an lrp/nosram they are smaller and they won't let you down they've moved on since brushed technology and the quality of motors and reliability is excellent and so is the quality of the esc's!

I got a GTB in my xxx, I just used a piece of plastic which bolted to the rear bulkhead using the standard screws.

maybe it would be cool to go around your front shoktower also with those motor wires...

seriously, tun the speedo, make the wires shorter.

Changing the batteries wasn't a problem what it was mounted on was fairly flexible.

Don't worry the speedo did get turned around, the the losi is long gone now. Next challenge it to fit it into the pred
