Indoor motor
 
Need a bit of advice, whats gonna be a good BRUSHED motor for the winter at Os? Am thinking an 11x1 might be a little too much.

I always liked 12 or 13t indoors back in the brushed days :thumbsup:

I prefered a ten double. Down to what you prefer. Major torque use a ten, more of a relaxed accelaration and more top end use a 13d

Have you raced indoors at Oswestry before ?
If not, then its not that big and you can get upto 30 laps in the 6 min heat (depending upon track layout).
I run a 10.5 brushless with lipo and its quick enough.
I have run a 6.5 and spent most of the time trying to keep the car in a straight line. :lol:

Phil, Its been a while since I ran indoors, I assume its similar to how frodsham was back in the late 90's since that was when I ran indoors last.

Think for safety I will stick somit slower in, just until I have seen layouts grip etc.

I'm looking forward to this on Thursday as I only have 7.5 slowest!!!!

Should be fun!

what surface do you race on?

neiloliver 06-10-2009 07:02 PM

Carpet, unless the moths have eaten it over the summer. With patches of old wooden floor where the carpet is not long enough.

jono83 06-10-2009 07:12 PM

Me and ash will be at the club from about 11am to start tidying up indoor and try and get the rostrum up and the carpet down.

PaulRotheram 06-10-2009 07:25 PM

When and how often do you guys race at oswestry? how many heats/rounds are there too?

jono83 06-10-2009 08:21 PM

Every thursday night starting at about 7 we normally have 3-4 heats of about 6 or so cars

MatJohnson 07-10-2009 08:10 PM
