So, you guys are thinking these really are good motors? I mean, if you view a motor as basically a throw away item, why ever spend money on the brand names? I'm thinking of picking up two of them, burning them all summer in outdoor season and if they don't last, well, it's only $35 instead of 3X that for another motor brand.

I did pick up a 17.5 and plan to try it in boosted stock class this weekend. Hopefully it lasts but it sounds like you all are having good luck with the silver can versions.
