Can anyone give me feedback on the Integy Z Zone 27 motor? How should I gear it compared to a Monster, Epic, or CO27?
Thanks in advance.

I know i need to cut it and i have some Trinity xxx brushes i was going to put in. I really have no experience tuning stock motors so please let me know if i am off base.

Why 6.3 - 6.5 FDR for stock 27T ? Try 4.5 - 5.0 ?

So what did you end up with? Also how is the Tamiya track lately? Has it even been open? I am really getting tired of it raining on the weekends!

No spring dyno yet. My tuning arsenal consist of a lathe and it needs a new bit! (I m guessing if you hit the winds and stop the comm that is not good for the bit, just add it to my stupity tax bill.)
