Why is Pro 10 different than 19T touring?

Default The question is....

pitbull is wondering why Pro 10 gets to run 10.5, and 19T TC does not.

In Pro 10 you'll likely see more of a difference between the 10.5 and 19t motors since the cars are lighter, and much more responsive than a TC.

So I also ask the question, how come Pro10 can run 10.5 and 19t TC can not?

10.5 and 19T is the standard. 13.5 (no brushed) is 2009 ROAR rules.

19t TC PT 6711172
12scale 13.5 PT 8548198

I totally disagree with the 10.5 not being allowed in TC, makes 0 sense.

thanks,
