“Speed Passion hits a home run with the very first of a new generation of “Super ESCs” capable of sensored motor operation utilizing the sensor loom, sensored motor operation without the loom, and purely sensorless operation as well as brushed motor capability. Racers and bashers alike now have the choice of multiple operation modes within the same ESC for uncompromising crossover performance on AND off the track. The GT is also the first to INCLUDE a hand held pocket size programming box for easy trackside adjustments with each ESC! Racer inspired compact dimensions and smooth throttle response has already made it a hit at tracks across the country, and the extensive features list makes it THE ESC for almost any application.

Also, its nice and low so it will suite 2wd cars better even with a fan on.
