That's what I was thinking. Too many power options and someone will be complaining. We locally have shown the 17.5 and a good silver can are very very close. But the sport tuned is faster as is the 3300 Hobbywing.

The sport tuned is faster than the brushless because of the gearing. If you could gear bigger the brushless would be much faster. But with a set maximum gearing you can't use all that torque.

The sport tuned motor may be something where you only run in a trophy race or national event the reason I say that is the silver can can be slower than the brushless and the sport tuned is faster than the brushless. These facts are based on all the motors being stock
