I'm not snotty because I fell out of my chair laughing every time you claim you can get $350 for an ancient TC6 with some crap used electronics and worthless shells. I'm just a realist. Don't hate the playa, hate tha game.

If it was a TKR, dude might make a few bucks. TC6 ? No dice.

TKR would self destruct before ending up in the possession of a clueless newb. Tommy would have it no other way....

this was the reason why I wrote that a Tekin esc will turn my motor into a 4.5 miraculously. Not That I am of the belief that is possible.

Since you aren't racing the car, put as much motor as you want in it, but it won't turn well at speed with a VTA shell and you will wear out driveline components faster in correlation to how fast of a motor that you put in it. Outdrives, belts, pulleys, spur gears, etc. all wear out much quicker with low turn motors and faster still when you are not running on a prepped race surface.
Thanks for the advice, but I sold it yesterday for 350$. I had it less than a week and made 230$ out of the deal. I have no complaints.
