I am using the electrics that came with the buggies- brushed motors and nimh batteries. Can I use LIPO with a brushed speedo / motor - will it make a difference vs nimhs? I am trying to keep costs down at the present... I will upgrade to a brushless system eventually.

Can someone suggest a good ratio - got a whole load of pinions / spur gears to play with !

Also I would love to do some racing however I fear I will be totally rubbish - are many races run stock these days - what would be considered a stock set up now?

thanks all

What's your location? Best bet is to find a local club and go down, there will be plenty of racers willing to help out, racing isant all about speed! Some times the slower cars do better!
