Every body has won races in this class. It comes down to who can avoid the total damnation in the first few laps

For a GOOD brushed stock motor, people have run anything between 5.2 and 6.0 FDR and been competitive. I would probably start in the range of a 5.7 FDR and go from there, depending on your batteries and motor building talents.

Looking forward to meeting you at the Nats...
