stock v. modified
 

yes....this is a rookie question....but what is diff between stock and modified motors?

motors...
 

keeping it simple...

mods are faster then stock
mods have adjustable timing
mods are more expensive




:D

thanks! so which would be better to use? mod?

one really isn't better than the other. I just depends what you want to do. If you are racing then you need to decide if you want to race mod or stock. I race stock simply because my driving skills are not up to the task of controlling a mod powered car. If you just bash and want to beat your friends racing down the street then a cheaper mod may be for you.

Hope this helps

oo...okay thanks. mod is for me

mods..
 

also if you are just bashing i would pick up a machine would mod motor instead of handwound.

they are a little cheaper.

alritey...but im not planning to crash intetionally (sp?) but im bound for crashing...hehehe:lol: :lol: :ha:

stock :
27 turns
fixed timing
bushing


mod :
any turns from 5 to 27 turns
u can set the timing (sometimes noton cheap modifieds)
bushing ou bearing
handwound or machine wound
cheapest mod is cheaper than a stock

before choosing one, see which kind of rac you want to attend, if u are a beginner go for stock it will be a better school for driving, you can use mods for practice (i heard you said u have several motors)

read carefully this page, it will help you a lot to how a motor works
