Way back when it was brushed stock, max $40 to be legal. Wouldn't a $80 or $100 cap stop all this motor of the week crap? A better solution than a "spec" motor?
I know that's why I quit USGT.
well if they did do a $80 cap...what would stop the guys with that extra $$$$ from buying 4 or 5 of those and getting the really good one?
I personaly would rather spend $100-$150 or even $180 for a really, REALLY good one and be done, than buy 2 or 3 $80 motors and HOPE to get a good one...and then buy the equipment to check it to see if its a good one.
Its a bad situation, but Ive been in this class since day one...and beyond(RCGT), but I have to say...it isnt broken...70 plus cars at events at $100 an entry dont lie...and on top of that, I dont know of any running older motors, except some sponsored guys.
get you a Team Scream or Motiv or whatever ROAR legal motor, and enjoy.
