yep, that looks just as bad as the brushed motor kawasaki-san (from drift tengoku) locked up while drifting with us. maintenance is why i recommend brushless setups (if you got the funds) over brushed setups. we hardly get any issues with brushless setups, except for my first gen one that i spun the shaft out of (novak ss5800). i still highly recommend novak though for the price. the current GTB has a nice whine to it, kinda like my turbo at WOT. i hope i don't kill this one too.
