Went to the track last nite and the 2200 Castle motor was too fast for my buggy on 5S so after I got home, I swapped it in to the LST2 and put the 1700KV back in the buggy. I have to admit that I dont like the 2200 motor in the LST2. It lacks torque even on 5S with a 16T pinion. It also takes a while to spool up and get to top speed. Speed is more like the 427 nitro motor though. Hopefully it will have enough speed now to clear the big double at the track because it dodnt have it with the 1700 motor. I'll test that out on Thursday.

I'm going to order the Novak 3 pinion pack with an 18,19, and 20T pinions and play with gearing a bit more.
