Man is this a let down .Here I've been watching the threads and getting all kinds of info on my personal journey to the electric underground of1/12th rc and a trusted source comes up with a quote like this.So I have to say come on man pull yourself together! you got game, and the special bearing sauce !
Now that thats done could someone tell me what is the correct motor for 1/12 stock @ Minreg ? Thanks

The CO27 is the motor to run bro. If you need any help getting things going feel free to stop by. Me, PW and Adrian will be pitting upstairs

Who's got a copy of CraigX's set-up, please?

Thanks again!

LIGHTER - more rear traction and better control on bumpy tracks. much off power steering, little on power steering (less spinouts coming out of the corner
STIFFER - less rear traction. much on-power mid-out steering, little off power steering

How come 172mm rear width is so special? is that the minimum spec width at a big race or something? what if you went shorter?

172mm is MAX allowed under international rules

Haven't run any of my 12ths less than that

Default Motor Position

What's the ideal position in the motor pod?

Front, Middle or Back?

Does it affect the handling as much as moving the batteries for & aft?
