Hi Paul I wanted to know ,what do you think of a 13t motor would ,I enjoy the power more cause the 17t seems to be very slow and i can't really enjoy ,this awesome car if I'm unable to find the right type of motor !! Oh I'm still using brushed motors ,which is considered old school !! I think the brushed motors with the correct gearing will do great on tight tracks !!! The brushless seem to work better on more open swooping tracks ,this is only my take !!!

Shock question.
Hi Paul, I have a shock question for you.
If we had two shocks, a long one and a short one (old xray/new xray) and shock travel was not a issue, and both shocks where running the same weight oil and built for zero rebound, would there be a different "feel" between the two shocks because of the pack at the top of the shock? Could this be changed if the old shock bladder where changed to the low profile bladder?
Thanks very much.
