My son has a 1.0 with the speed passion 17.5 MMM and for the $40 it's pretty quick. I'll be using a novak pulse esc. I'm choosing between the tekin, novak, schur speed, or the speed passion. I plan on racing as well. Thanks

Shur are considered the hot ticket where I race, but I have a Novak that came with a car I bought and it is very fast. I like the Reedy line, but Novak are faster than people credit them.

I was running a SP V3 and swapped it out for the Schurr Speed. The Schurr Speed is noticeably faster.

Have you considered building your own motor? I built an outlaw motor with the 13mm rotor but they ship the 12.3mm rotor with it. So you get both rotors.

What ever you get be sure to check ROAR rules for legal motors if you're planning on racing!! Don't think 13.0mm rotor is legal though ???

Also consider the r1wurks and trinity d4, but honestly the motor won't be the only thing that makes you competive in stock class, people drop hundreds of dollars into buggys to make them lighter and accelerate faster plus 100c lipos charged at ridiculous amps, not to mention that there very good driver's that would be competitive in mod but enjoy kicking newby butt.

13mm is not. But the 12.3 is. I just wanted the rotor and the legal rotor still comes with it.

Can you shed some light on the D4 series? The Trinity web site has very little application information on each version. There is the 1702, 1702R, and 1702RM, plus the 1702RXX.
I was told the 1702 is the basic motor, the 1702R is I think more torque?, then the 1702RM is more torque and speed, but then there is the D4 1S short stack supposedly the best.

How would each of these be best used? Or should everyone just buy the D41S?

For off road go 17.5maxzilla it has the high torque rotor and as far the 1s d4 it might be 1s lipo 3.7v but not sure

Coming from carpet oval the D4 wasn't keeping up with the short stack R1's and team screams I fairly sure the D4 1S will work in a 2S application and would most likely blow the doors off of a standard D4.

I have a 17.5 Team Powers, G Force, R1 Wurks and a D4. I've played around with all four in three different cars and I find the G Force and the R1 to be the fastest. However, the G Force is smoother than the R1 and neither seem to fade. That said, I don't run them above 50 degrees C.
