Or what are the rules in general i will be starting to race after the new year moneys tight to buy an esc and motor right now me and my wife just had a baby. i was looking at the viper vtx10r, lrp flow works team, orion r10 pro, or tekin rs gen 2. I cant decide which as i want to be able to use it when i am able to move up to mod 2wd sc. also trying to decide on a motor i like the revtech's on paper does or has any one on here used them? Also wondering what would be good tire choices for the indoor track? Any advice would be helpful thank you again everyone who has given me advice.
For the indoor track I like to run suburbs and bar codes. They have pre mounted ready to go bar codes in the shop, 30$ a pair. Also, for an esc I like to run speed passion stuff, but if u had to choose out of all of the those I'd go with the tekin. My friend Jeff Roy has one and he reversed polarity on it, what this means is u reverse the connection on the battery and fry your electronics, but back to what I was saying, Jeff did this and sent it back for the 120 day warrentie and got a brand new one for free. But also a lot of RC is preference so c'mon down to the track see what guys are running out there. Also the speed control has to be in "blinky mode" in stock. Good luck!
