So they have a certified plus now...... Having owned 3 certs, they should have done all that to the certs. not have another level of certification.

Just another selling ploy.

Doesn't ROAR have a rule that states a stock motor can only cost a maximum $149. The new "plus" motor is $175...

$175 each. Is timing the only difference between the various scale applications? They have a 17.5 1s Certified Plus, but not certified.

For that kind of money, the motor can should actually be 24 karat gold.

From what I read a regular certified could be +/-30 on the rotor and the stator readings.
The certified plus will be +/- 4 and come with sealed ceramic bearings, a dyno printout and be timed for your application(onroad,offroad).
From the ROAR rules:
8.5.2.2 The maximum retail price of a “05” brushless motor shall be $149.00.
8.5.2.3 The maximum retail price of a 1/8th brushless motor shall be $299.00.

So will it be legal? Is it worth it if it is?

The only difference is ceramic bearings right?

Most people tune their own motors and you can put your own ceramics in.

I wonder if 8.5.2.2 means MSRP or street value??

I can't wait to see how many racers will keep motor receipts during tech inspections at roar races The stock class has gotten out of hand..

Anyone know the size of the screws that you use to adjust timing?

Are these the ones?
