Default Stock SCT Racing

I currently run a 2wd SCT modified class but the upcoming SuperCup race has classes for modified and stock short course and I know I have not the slightest chance at competing in the modified class with all of the pro drivers that compete in it. So I'm looking to compete in the stock class instead. My question is what would be the best motor to get for stock racing. I've always been a fan and a supporter of Tekin and their products but as technology advances some of these companies fall behind on the technology. From what I've heard the best electric motor companies are Trinity, Tekin, and Team Orion. Can anyone clear up which company provides the best motor for the stock class?

I've ran the killshot for a few years great motor I ran the torque version
Stock class is all about keeping truck light as you can and still be legal weight
So if you have a bunch of aluminum upgrades may want to change back to stock stuff

Fantom tweaks Trinity motors, and does a great job of providing the best stock motors out there.

+1, but they can get a bit $$$. Still great motors!

All motors mentioned are great but for sure these are best. Legal and tons of low end tq so gear high. Runs cool as well.

I have run stock for a couple of years and I have always had really good luck with the novak Ballistic and Vulcan motors. Currently that's what in my 22sct and 22 2.0. But stated above are great motors as well.

At my track, running stock doesn't mean lesser driver. There's nothing wrong with not making the A Main.

To be honest, you might not have a "chance at competing" in the stock class either. Stock class racing has become just as competitive at major races as mod. I'm just saying you need to keep your expectations realistic We don't know you, so you might win the whole thing or be in the Z main. Either way have FUN, after all that's why we do this right?

If you didn't have to be ROAR legal I'd say run a Trinity D3.5, because that's what the fast guys run in every stock class at my local track. Since you probably do need to be legal, I guess a Trinity D4?

Racer1812 is right. Stock SCT is a killer class. I feel at times its worse than stock buggy. I stopped racing it for a bit cause its very hard on motors to compete at the top level. If your not using full size packs, I would get use to it cause in 8 mins the shorty will BARELY make it.

I would also suggest saving your money and sticking with mod. You never know what results you'll get, there is a reason they run the races!
