Easier to de-tune a more powerful motor than to try and squeak power out of a motor that can't produce it.

It's nice to see that it only took 2.5 weeks to make it to MI. I have been kind of holding off buying from him because I didn't want it to take the month to get here (Detroit area), plus I wanted to buy something stateside in case I had problems there would be no language problems and time zone headaches. I kind of like the HK 100A ESC posted earlier in the thread, just wish I could find out if I can program all the Boost/iming/turbo etc on it. Plus it would give more options of motors later on.

I emailed him about his 120A ESC : Do you sell just motors that can be paired with this ESC? I want a 120A ESC with a 13.5 motor. The reason I want a 120A esc is in case I want to go to a motor lower than a 11.5 in my Blitz. Plus I know a few people that bought your 60A ESC 17.5 combo and would also like to know if you sell just motors so they can swap them out at the track for different classes. Thanks for your time.

I'll let you know what the response is.
TJ you can run down to a 8.5 or 7.5 safely with the 60a as long as you gear to temp (130* or less motor at the 5 min mark).I ran a novak 8.5 with my 60 amp Xerun in my losi SCB most of the summer without any issues at all .and a 8.5 inthe SCB was just silly fast!!
