So, Should I go with the 540 motor, or one of the two 550 motors??? Thoughts?
If it is 2wd you are going to be pretty much forced into the 3900kv 540 system. Pretty much everywhere you race 2wd will be limited to 540 motors. That and the 3900 is PLENTY strong about on par with a 7.5 motor.
The 550s would really offset the weight bias to the left side of the car allot and be way too much motor to hook up in a 2wd truck.
