So for some roll outs you have to run a larger spur gear than you might want to. The option motor plate solves that issue.

I really like the stock motor plates and since we run gigantic pinions in every class but mod now getting mesh is not a problem

Now I'd better go check all the emails I sent this morning and see if they were also clear as mud
so really the change allows you to run a smaller 'total' number of teeth (pinion + spur)
