Hi all.

I raced on the weekend for ths first time in years and to my supprise I wasn't to bad. Winning the final in the 4wd buggy class. This was only due to another racer having problems tho. But second is good with me. I'm currently running a 19t motor and i'm just looking for a little bit of extra punch.

Can anyone recommend a 15t or 17t motor??

As per one of the other threads here the Venom Fireball motors are a good reliable cheap motor although not overly fast. I like running the orion motors but have gone brushless now so wouldnt like to say any particular orion model, one thing I can advise tho is concerning LRP motors, I used to run a LRP 17X4 in my touring car and it was really really slow, almost as slow as a kit tamiya 540 silver can in fact so in my opinion Id steer clear of these.

i ran orion peak v2 motors back in theday:lol: they where ok and good on brushes buy brushless they pay for there self in a matter of months due to running costs providing you gear them right:lol:
